I stand corrected.  In a last-ditch effort before going to bed, I retried=20
combinations.  Miraculously using "SWCursor" works now, and I don't know ho=
w,=20
as I checked and double checked before sending the email.  The color issue =
is=20
still present, and I think that's an endian issue, since it's being drawn o=
n=20
an x86 (X forwarding of konqueror).
