The triangle should be fairly easy to see.  Perhaps the fringe is too dark and
you have poor contrast.  The background colour of the fringe face on GNU/Linux
defaults to grey95 for me, but I get grey10 (too dark) on Windows with nqmacs.
If this is the case, you can use M-x customize-face RET fringe, to change the
colour.

[Perhaps you are not using Emacs 22.0.50, in which case you won't see the
breakpoint icons I mentioned in my previous e-mail. Questions about released
versions of Emacs should be sent to <help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org>.]
