Unless your hardware supports alpha-blended full color cursors, the only
place a hardware cursors are going to be used are places where the
current cursors theme doesn't have a cursor to replace the old X bitmap
cursor.
(Perhaps you've noticed the difference in appearance between the cursors
that get sent to the hardware and the other cursors)
