OK, perhaps that is the situation

I could not get "showfont -start X -fn cursor" to work with any value of
X on any of my x servers. I get
base@peter:~/nzbget> showfont -start $((0x99)) -fn cursor
can't open server "localhost:7100"

Am I supposed to start some font server? How? Would that possibly help 
me out?

(This is where X turns into Voodoo for me)

It suggests to put
feature.cursors          = 0
in a file called ~/.xitkrc, but that doesn't help.

Is this a xine bug in your opinion? 'Cause then I'll stop bugging this 
list... :-D
