Author could not open default cursor font 'cursor'

Now this is def an X problem, a Dell Workstation 530 on RH8.0 was all
working fine and then yesterday all of a sudden X won't start!

I tried redhat-config-xfree86 and it says 'Could not start, trying with a
fresh config blah blah blah' which I was hopeful about but then chucks me
back to the console and when I examine /var/log/xfree86.setup.log the error
message at the bottom is:

could not open default cursor font 'cursor'

It's a mystery why this has all of a sudden started happening!

Gaz.
