Xvesa has the "cursor" font build-in.  AFAIK 
no other Xserver has that.  That is why the 
BL3 no-xvesa.tgz package installs the "cursor"
font (and some other things).

Xvesa has the rgb specifications build-in.
AFAIK other Xservers need a rgb file if you
want to set colors by name rather than number.

Cheers,
