just for clearification:

You are running X11 locally, use xterm (or someting simillar) and ssh to the
target computer, there you do "/opt/trinity/bin/kdeinit -no-kded"? If yes,
what is the initial cursor theme? Is it the default cursor?

I am not running it locally. I ssh into the my laptop from my mac and run that. The default cursor is the default trinity cursor.
