Description Ed Catmur 2005-08-23 09:29:12 UTC

For whatever reason, we put cursors in /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11 rather than
where Xorg defaults to put them (/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icons).

As a result the "Cursor" tab in the Mouse capplet only sees the Bluecurve cursor
themes (they have a symlink from within /usr/share/icons).

The mouse capplet needs to be fixed to look for cursor themes in
/usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11 (add path at capplets/mouse/gnome-mouse-properties.c
line
651).

(See bug 83450 for when this bug hit gcursor).

Works for me in control-center 2.12.

Comment 2 Ed Catmur 2006-02-14 11:45:54 UTC

Yup.
