"Ever since I moved to OS/2 I have lived with a petty annoyance.  The comet
cursor is a great feature for LCD use, but it has to be re-enabled with
each boot.  I just found a trivially easy workaround that permits comet
cursor to be enabled automaticly.  All you have to do is put a program
object pointing to \os2\cometrun.exe into your startup folder.  Problem
solved.  It turns out that this problem is only encountered if you have SET
RESTARTOBJECTS=STARTUPFOLDERS ONLY or SET RESTARTOBJECTS=NO in your
config.sys."

I don't see why you refer to this as a workaround. It seems to me that the
system is behaving (a) exactly as documented and (b) in a perfectly
sensible manner. I don't think you had a problem before, it was behaving
as you asked it to!
