The file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (If you are using XFree 4.1) or 
/etc/X11/XF86Config (If you are using Xfree 3.3.6) has a setting called

             #Option "sw_cursor"

right in the file.

You need to edit the file.  To do that, open a terminal (what follows is my 
dialog)

[tester@civileme tester]$ su
Password:
[root@civileme tester]# kate /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
DCOPServer up and running.
[root@civileme tester]#exit
[tester@civileme tester]$

Of course, where it asked for password I put in my root password.  In Kate, I 
used ctrl-F to bring up the find window, searched for the string sw_curs and 
deleted the leading '#' sign on that line.

What you are describing is a problem with the video driver, so it would be 
helpful if you reported the brand and model of video card you use.
