Sorry for replying myself, just wanted to add iff you want to control
the emacs cursor under bash in the _console_ (i.e. not in X Window)
you can try to install the package gpm.

gpm includes the following Emacs mode:

$ dpkg -L gpm | grep t-mouse
/usr/share/doc/gpm/examples/t-mouse.el.gz

With it you can use t-mouse-mode in the console instead of
xterm-mouse-mode.

HTH,
