However, I cannot find a way to make the cursor more visible. I tried to write a little c program that can draw a circle around the cursor but I can't get it to properly work. On OS X my mouse looks like this [1], the cursor would be inside the blue circle, but is not visible in the screenshot.
Anyway, I'm looking for suggestions to solve this problem so I can use Linux on my desktop once again.
If you use a DE that works with Compiz, there's an option under Accessibility to Show Mouse. I have it set to have three bands of random, flickering colors rotate around it when active. It's a lot easier than moving the mouse around until you see where it is.
