    Just to note: I have had similar problems related to a misconfigured video
    card XF86Config. If this is the case, you should get a cursor if you move
    the mouse at the command line, but nothing in X. (Actually, in my case,
    moving the mouse caused the edges of windows to bug out and was related to a
    wrong chipset.)

    Peace,
    Clayton

    PS. if you continue to have problems, try asking the -questions list.
