gabbman Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 Being too impatient to wait for the kde3.2 control panel way of doing the cursor theme change, on a standard 9.2 install, who has had success with say white, or white shadow, or crystal cursors, ... and how.? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidzoo Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 A quick answer can be found here: http://www.kde-look.org/help/index.php?type=36 That says it's specifically for KDE, but by following those directions you can change your mouse cursors for any WM/DE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beesea Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 in put it in ~/.Xresources: Xcursor.theme: Industrial Xcursor.size: 16 and in my ~/.xinitrc: xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources i think if you use a dm it will look for a ~/.Xresources and load it automatically, but i use startx so i need the line above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
