Hiding mouse cursor in linux touchscreen app?

All-

I’m working on a touchscreen app using Debian linux and want to hide the mouse cursor.

The obvious thing to try is:

frame.SetCursor(wx.StockCursor(wx.CURSOR_BLANK))

but this does nothing. I tried unclutter but it interferes with the application and shows the mouse cursor anyway when I click on things like Choice pop-ups.

I’m surely not the first to want to run a wxPython touchscreen app using Linux, so I’m wondering, how to people deal with this?

Thanks!

Call SetCursor from the child widgets.
