bad mouse pointer

[Felix Miata <mrmazda@earthlink.net>]

Bullseye & Bookworm amd64 on old 945G intel graphics using modesetting DIX. I
couldn't get the Intel DDX driver to load instead. Mouse pointer at TDM login
greeter and in IceWM, LXDE, XFCE & TDM sessions are always the activity spinner.
Strings put and ouse in .xsession-errors are absent. What package could be
missing, erroneous, or badly configured?
