Strange, it works for me.

Fresh install of centos 5.0. No changes to xorg.conf

Do you get the block cursor visible in text mode when
you move the mouse around?

"High Performance Mouse" has to be deselected in the
Remote Console window.

I'm pretty sure that this has always worked even when I
ran RedHat 9 on these machines...

This is on ML370 G3 machines.
