Description Lamarque V. Souza 2024-03-12 22:32:40 UTC

Sometimes comix-xcursors is not shown in gvim when using KDE Plasma 6.0.1. For instance, when I press "i" to go to insert mode or when I select any text in gvim the cursor changes to Breeze cursor theme (the default for Plasma 6). This problem happens in gvim only, maybe because it requires XWayland to work. I was able to fix this problem by doing these changes:

1. move all ComixCursors* folders from /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11 to /usr/share/icons/
2. create symbolink links /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11/ComixCursors* pointing to 
/usr/share/icons/ComixCursors*/cursors

That is the same folder layout used by the Adwaita theme.
