I am looking for any ideas on how to either resolve or debug this problem
to the next level. I am currently using 6.8.99.901-4 of XWin, although I
have had the following problem through several cygwin updates now.
I am using XWin to start an XDMCP session to an Ubuntu box running a GNOME
desktop via gdm. The current version of Ubuntu is 7.04 although I have had
this problem going against 6.10 and 6.06 as well.
Everything runs fine for me for some intermittent amount of time and then I
inevitably wind up losing the visibility of the mouse pointer in the X
server.

This is a known problem. The current work-around is to go to the "X" icon
in the task bar, right click on it, and select the option to restore the
cursor (I forget the precise wording).
