    In "Epoch 4.0 Beta Patchlevel 0" running on a HP 720 running HP/UX 8.05
    on X11R4 X server, the cursor seems to disappear quite often.  It
    always disappears in shell-mode after I issue a command and shell-mode
    inserts the command output into the shell window.  This happened after
    starting epoch -q, so it is not my .el code as far as I can tell.
    
This sounds similar to the problem epoch has with OpenLook clients.  Does
your window focus get stuck in a particular epoch window, or do you use
click-to-focus anyway?  My solution when this occurs is to force the focus
on a window and then unfocus again - then epoch starts behaving properly (I
use focus on mouse pointer rather than click-to-focus).
