*** Please type your report below this line *** When I login to an aewm session using SLiM I get no cursor on my screen. If I click on my desktop to bring up my aewm menu I can move the highlight down and up through the options on my menu by moving the mouse up and down but there is no x cursor visible. If I move the mouse off the menu I can't see where the cursor is and have to click again wherever I am to bring up a new instance of the menu. Once I open a window, e.g. an xterm or a web browser, and move the mouse over that window I get my normal I beam cursor (or arrow cursor if appropriate) and from then on I get the x cursor when I move the mouse around the desktop. I tried uninstalling slim and installing xdm - I did not have this problem, as soon as I logged in with xdm I could see a cursor on my screen. I uninstalled xdm and reinstalled SLiM and the problem came back. John
