Package: kdebase
Version: 4:3.2.2-1
Severity: normal

Hi,
  I just installed debian on a new machine, and the mouse pointer does not appear properly if at all.

If I move the mouse a large kinda stripy rectangle appears the top left corner of which is where the mouse pointer
should be

when the 'hourglass' should appear I can see some movement in this rectangle
(when emacs was starting up I saw a bouncing gnu !)

when the mouse is still the pointer dissapears altogether.

I have tried settig a few different cursor themes from kcontrol - but this has no effect.

  bug is an X one, solved by appropriate config.

  please reopen the bug assigning it to X if you feel that it was not
properly fixed. in any case, it's not a KDE bug at all.
