Most probably an upstream bug (feel free to forward), but well...

Upon X session startup and at random moments later during the session, 
the mouse pointer bitmap turns into a square of pixel noise. The pointer 
bitmap is sometimes restored, whenever an application changes it e.g. 
from an arrow to a text selector, then distorted again later at random.

Whenever this happens, it becomes extremely difficult for the user to 
figure out which part of the pointer is supposed to be centerd on a 
widget they need to click to interact with applications.

This does not happen using the xserver-xorg-video-vesa driver. However,
the VESA driver makes a poor substitute for the NSC driver, because it
is slower and it produces an off-center image that exceeds the monitor's 
screen space, so the VESA driver cannot be used a temporary work-around.

Why do you report a bug if you're not willing to do anything about it?
This is useless, and a waste of people's time.  Go away.

Thanks,
