Not completely, at least not without hacking the X-server. If the apps you use never try to install a cursor of their own, you can get rid of the default cursor by using xsetroot to install a completely transparent cursor (any cursor with a mask of all zeroes will be transparent). To hack it permenantly... In xc/programs/Xserver/dix/cursor.c in function CheckForEmptyMask(), you can force an invisible cursor by having that function set emptyMask to TRUE and then return. That's the only way to make it completely invisible even when apps are trying to install their own cursors. Mark.
