Enable Software Cursor in X11

Enable Software Cursor in X11

I am using XVFB to create a virtual screen buffer on my headless virtual machine. I noticed that XVFB is not by default rendering a mouse so I am trying to enable a software rendered mouse to get the mouse to show up in the screen buffer. I am having trouble enabling it.

Here is my Xorg.0.log:

I have also put the following files in the these places:

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-video.conf

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "My Graphics Card3"
        Driver          "fbdev"
        Option          "SWcursor"      "on"
EndSection

/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-video.conf

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "My Graphics Card2"
        Driver          "fbdev"
        Option          "SWcursor"      "on"
EndSection

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
