Hey folks. I had this problem before, but now that I have two monitors
it's only gotten worse. Occasionally, I lose the mouse pointer and I
have to track it down by waving the pointer and seeing what windows

There is a utility called xeyes, which displays a pair of eyes on the
screen which look towards the mouse pointer, helping to track its
location. You may already have this installed on your system.

Yes, someone mentioned that; it sounds like it might do the trick. Know
any way to embed it into gkrellm?
