recent upgrade of linux-image-2.6.32-5-686 (some two weeks ago) made X11 start
without mouse cursor visible (mouse operates correctly - when mouse moves over
active region, I can see the region gives highlight feedback).
No such problem show up, when I boot last linux-image-2.6.32-3-686. Previous
version of *-5-686 didn't have that problem either, but I didn't have that
package to test it.

Bug#620857: linux-image-2.6.32-5-686: xorg x11 server does not display cursor
All userland software depends on the kernel, so is not unrelated.
This bug is important, though.
The bug is fixed in version 2.6.32-32, currently in
stable-proposed-updates. Due to some regressions on other
architectures, this can't be moved to stable-updates, but the next
version (2.6.32-33) probably will.
Ben.
