So It's that easy, just make a theme and user can select. Good idea.
Can you give me pointer as a clue on making cursor theme?
Like what I've just said, I'm no GNOME hacker, but wannabe.

Just read your nice reading patch. Your code is much easir to read
than the current tc1k_drv.c XInput driver.

Yes, xrandr works nicely. Will try your grandr later.

Do you have this problem?
 From Xvesa, try switch to text mode, then switch back, the driver
will try to paint the windows' backgound and border then the system
hang up.
This happend to your Xvesa and the one I built from XFree86
source. I try this on several kernel versions and the result are
the same. How about your?
