[Solved] Slim+Xmonad: Mouse cursor defaults to "X"

Hey there,
I'm having a weird problem. I'm using Slim to login and Xmonad as a WM, and in all areas in which there are no windows open, the mouse cursor defaults to the "X" (that's usually displayed to tell you "you can't click here" instead of the arrow. For example that also goes for my system tray and xmobar, as those windows are "ignored"/not managed by xmonad.

And well, I'd really prefer the default cursor to be set to the arrow instead of the cross. How do I do that?

Thanks, I feel a little dumb for not finding that myself. D'oh.

Please add "[Solved]" to the title by editing the OP. PS: Xmonad is the best!
