I've seen this happen a few times, and it's starting to happen more and more. Boots up, cursor on vesafb is blinking away. X starts, flip back to tty1, cursor still there. sometime later flip to X, flip to tty again, cursor is invisible.

I've seen the same thing with a mach64. Using a curses app like mutt brings the cursor back.
