DirectFB Reference Manual
IDirectFBDisplayLayer   SetCursorOpacity

Set the cursor opacity.

SetCursorOpacity (
  IDirectFBDisplayLayer *thiz
  __u8 opacity
);

This function is especially useful if you want to hide the cursor but still want windows on this display layer to receive motion events. In this case, simply set the cursor opacity to zero.
