Hum, it could be a graphical problem. A shot in the dark:

Have you tried to deactivate the Composite transparency effects? It is possibly not supported by your graphics card.
Something like Mageia Control Center > Hardware > Set up the graphical server, and in the options you uncheck the box corresponding to the transparency effects.

If you follow Akien's advice, in Mageia Control Center > Hardware > Set up the graphical server
is there an option for Hardware/Software cursor? I think this is the problem.

And are you talking about the standard cursor, or did you switch to an animated cursor?
