GodFlesh Posted June 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 hum, i'm on cooker, and it seems a lot of them ain't working. "whiteglass" is the only one which made a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodFlesh Posted June 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 whiteglass is interesting though, because the cursor is kind of transparent ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 (edited) I don't know if this still works but you can do it by hand: -1- Create a .icons folder in your $HOME -2- Untar the cursor tar and copy it to .icon -3- Create a folder called default in .icons -4- use kwrite (or your favorite text editor) to create a index.theme. In it put [index Theme] Inherits = name of cursor -5- copy your cursor folder to /usr/share/icon (as root) -6- edit the index.theme in /usr/share/icons/default Inherits = cursor name -7- restart X Edited June 21, 2004 by devries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
