The problem with the cursor on the Irises is that they use the XNeWS 
server (more or less).  This exhibits a bug in cursor handling.
I forget what ther fix was; here I just put in preferences to change
the default display colors to get around the bug:

*.ForegroundColor:snow
*.BackgroundColor:SlateGray
