>>>How do I completely disable my mouse, ie. no cursor visible on screen


As I have look for this, for about 2 days I post the answer, even if it was
already explain before.

To make the mouse disapear, you have to use a cursor set with transparents
cursor

-> make a transparent image in PNG file format.
-> make a cursors with it:
	> cat blank.conf
	32 0 0 blank.png

	> xcursorgen blank.conf blank

-> construct a cursor set by copying your blank cursor into a new directory
	> mkdir ~/.icons
	> mkdir ~/.icons/transparent
	> mkdir ~/.icons/transparent/cursors
	> cp blank ~/.icons/transparent/cursors/cross
	> cp blank ~/.icons/transparent/cursors/left_ptr
	> cp blank ~/.icons/transparent/cursors/..... 
	(all the cursors existing in a theme see: ls
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icons/handled)
	
-> set the theme
	> cat ~/.icons/default/index.theme
	[Icon Theme]
	Inherits=transparent

-> Restart X .and then.smily face :)
