Quite a useful program. Call it in your .xinitrc and let it sort everything out for you.
Hides the mouse when you type, can be configured to ignore modifiers, so using a tiling wm doesn't hide the cursor.
It has some weird quirks, but is stable.

The author has pushed some new changes that I think fix this though- I haven't tried them yet.
