from the install info:

its quite big ( 64x64 ) but i wanted maximum detail.

you can resize by typing:

 

export XCURSOR_THEME="tuxcursor"

export XCURSOR_SIZE=32

 

before you start X.

 

that might be a bit big too

there should be a way to make it smaller though without losing much of the quality.

i haven't installed xfree 4.3 in mandrake yet, but i dual-boot with gentoo where i do have xfree 4.3. there's a way to make the cursor smaller, but i don't know how much of the quality you'll lose (i haven't checked out that cursor). you have to create a file called ~/.Xdefaults and put in it:

Xcursor.size: 16        <-- the default is 24 i think

Xcursor.theme: whiteglass   <--theme name
