Try xsetroot.

Hmm, I was just assuming that 'xsetroot -cursor_name left_ptr' wouldn't work, but it did. Should really learn to try things before complaining. Not really sure why this happens though, all the other comix cursors get set just fine, only left_ptr that's ugly after logging in.

Well, I'm modifying my .xinitrc right after sending this email.
