Strange weirdness with the mouse pointer

	I have finally gotten around to running Fedora Core 1.  I got a new
Dell 8300 ($DEITY help me, I had no choice) and put FC1 on it.  After
updating it with yum/up2date I then installed the RH 9 rpms* for xfce4
<http://www.xfce.org> so I could get the environment best suited for my
needs.  Once this was done I now have a strange weirdness with the X
mouse pointer.  Whenever I mouse over an xterm the pointer changes to
something different.  For example, upon first logging in, the pointer
will change from the arrow to the X that is the fall back for X
Windows.  If I then run a Motif based app I get then big Motif hourglass
when mousing over an xterm.  If I run acroread I get the hand.  etc.
etc.

	This isn't a major problem, just an annoyance.  Does anyone have an
idea what might be causing this?  I have also asked on the fedora list
to try and see if this is something within it or if it's with X on FC1.

Thanks,
Joe

* BTW, are there any fc1 rpms and, if so, would I be able to just do an
rpm -Fvh * on them?
