[techtalk] Cursor decided to stay an X

Problem: my mouse pointer remains the X shape from startup, rather than
becoming the arrowhead.

System: Gnome and Enlightenment over Debian (potato)

First occurance: latest reboot, this afternoon. (I went into That Operating
System to play Theme Hospital. Rebooted into Linux, and didn't get my 
arrowhead mouse pointer)

Request: Anyone know whether this is a problem in X, Gnome, Enlightenment
or maybe even something else? Anyone know how to fix it, or where to start
looking?

Already tried: rebooting, hunting in Gnome and Enlightenment's configs, 
looking up the Linux Documentation Project pages, looking up man X.

System changes since it last worked: none that I know of but I'm going
to bug my husband and see if he's done any!
