https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=328016#c8 --- Comment #8 from Hans Petter Jansson <hpj@novell.com> 2007-10-02 18:33:09 MST --- Answering the additional question: Why are we getting the Industrial cursor theme in GDM and up until running the appearance applet? In new environments, the gconf key is there, but it's not set to any value, so no particular cursor theme is requested by GTK. However, the env var XCURSOR_THEME=Industrial is set in the user's session, and libXcursor has code that looks for this env var and sets the theme accordingly as a default. The XCURSOR_THEME env var is set prior to running the display manager from the /etc/init.d/xdm script, by sourcing /etc/profile.d/desktop-data.sh where it lives. desktop-data.sh in turn sources /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager and sets XCURSOR_THEME to whatever its X_MOUSE_CURSOR var is set to. As shipped, X_MOUSE_CURSOR=Industrial. When the gconf key is set to "default", this makes GTK request the theme "default", and apparently, Xcursor falls back to the core X cursors instead of XCURSOR_THEME. So maybe the bug is actually in libXcursor (part of xorg-x11-libs). It would make sense to have it fall back to what's set in XCURSOR_THEME when it can't find the requested theme. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
