Many modern pointers just look to the system like a USB mouse, so as 
long as your X Windows setup can work with a USB mouse you should be 
fine with *most* of these solutions.

I don't know the Targus but I've had good luck with the Gyration mouse 
(expensive, but you can move the pointer just by waving your hand around).
