How to move cursor with a bash command
« on: November 09, 2009, 11:44:05 PM »
Is there any way to move the cursor to the lower right corner of the screen so that it does not show until someone moves the mouse?
Or
Is there a way to make the mouse transparent?

I have tried a few options with the .xession file....
Xvesa -fc micro ... (the rest of the stuff)

This would not even make it to the X GUI.  It booted in to a terminal after the Xsession failed.  The error was could not find Display 0:0.  However when I remove the "-fc micro and leave the .xsession file in its original form, it boots just fine to the GUI.

-- sorry for cross posting.  I don't know which topic to put my question in.
