Hello all,
I'm sure most of you already know this, but it came as somewhat of a shock to me: using XFree86 4.3 (standard with SuSE 8.2) you can finally get some beauty in your mousepointers. I installed the Blue Glass XCursors 3D yesterday from http://themes.kde.org/content/show.php?content=5532, and it's amazing!
Anyway, my apologies if I'm pointing out the obvious, but I figured some of you might not be familiar with this feature yet. :)
Ok, what am I doing wrong? Get the Blue Xcursors from kde-look. Unfold then. Go into dir and move the Blue and defaults to /home/<user>/.kde/share/icons According to the readme it says to copy the two dirs 'Blue' and 'default' to the ~/.icons. I have 'icons' dirs but where are the '.icons' dir. I know that the "." is hidden so finding that isn't a big deal. It doesn't load and I have also added the line to my .Xdefaults file Xcursor.theme: Blue Xcursor.size: 32 But no go. I have also tried to comment/uncomment these lines in/out of .Xdefaults, as well as delete the kde and socket/user tmp files and the .mcop, .mcoprc and the the socket-<host>/tmp-<host> from the .kde dir to in case it was reading old configs/pointers, etc.. Any advice? TIA, Curtis.
