I had this with an NVidia chipset (don't recall the exact chipset right
now).
I had to add a SWCursor option to prevent cursor going invisible from time
to time under Lenny. Once it went invisible the X server would need to be
restarted to recover it. The cursor was just invisible - it always worked
perfectly if only you could guess where it was.
This is an example from xorg.conf:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "Vesa"
Option "SWCursor" "yes"
EndSection
Cheers,
Rob
