Quoted from the xterm FAQ (http://dickey.his.com/xterm/xterm.faq.html):
"Standard xterm does not implement a blinking cursor. Some of the
variations do: dtterm, GNOME Terminal, and XFree86 xterm (from mid
1999, patch 107). "
I can confirm that on Debian (Sid) the cursor on xterm doesn't blink,
at least as default. If you are using a gnome-terminal you should find
an option on "Profile" to disable blinking, instead if you are using
the text console, you can put the following line
echo -e '\033[?17;0;127c'
somewhere in your command shell startup file.
Hope this helps.
