Bit of background would probably be helpful but I'll take a swing at it. How 
did you change your cursors? I installed cursor_themes as soon as Buchan 
Milne announced it on the cooker list and have been using it since. 

Close everything you have open in any of the virtual desktops. In a terminal 
as super user type choose_cursor <enter> pick the global cursor setting you 
want accept the offer to restart the X-server and just to be certain, log out 
and log back in. All users (including root) should now have the same cursor.

To set the cursors to be the same for all users may not be a good idea. If you 
have multiple users on the system some may not want to use the animated 
penguin as a cursor, or a flaming red one or.... <g> Hey, it's your system.

Best of luck;
Charlie
