X display failing

[frakman1]

Hi there. Thank you for sharing this excellent project!

I followed your helpful instructions here but ran into this error when running the final python PiTFTWeather.py start

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ uname -a
Linux raspberrypi 4.4.27+ #2 Wed Oct 26 18:58:15 UTC 2016 armv6l GNU/Linux

pi@raspberrypi:~/git/net.jacotronix.python.PiTFTWeather/PiTFTWeather $ python PiTFTWeather.py start
I'm running under X display = :0.0
X Error of failed request:  BadCursor (invalid Cursor parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  95 (X_FreeCursor)

      after 164 requests (164 known processed) with 5 events remaining.

pi@raspberrypi:~/git/net.jacotronix.python.PiTFTWeather/PiTFTWeather $ 

I could successfully boot to desktop with my Raspberry Pi 2B running latest Jessi and 2.8" TFT kernel.

The screen would go blank briefly before returning to the desktop with this error.
Any ideas what might be going wrong?
