Thank you for answering,
let's suppose I am using a Fedora Core 2 for my tests.
I have two ways:
1. Creating an executable like 'unclutter' which removes the cursor, but i don't
know how.
2. Rebuilding a X server from scratch (with which options?) and replacing which
files ?
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
TIA
