The mouse pointer can be turned off in the config file (NOMOUSE = Y)
ONLY IF framebuffer support is selected (i.e. X11 = N), correct?
I assumed that X11 would have to be re-configured to turn off the mouse
pointer but that that would be an effect global to all Linux X11 apps.
I'll probably have to rebuild the kernel with framebuffer support and make
the mouse pointer disappear the correct way.
Thanks,
Russ
