[opensuse] classic x cursort theme files
Happy new year to openSUSE users and list members! My question is where the files of classic x cursor theme are located? In /usr/share/icons there are a few cursor themes but none of these seems to be the classic one. The reason I need this that the classic cursor theme looks different in openSUSE 10.3 and 11.1. In 10.3 it has black arrow and white right hand with an extended second finger. In 11.1 the arrow has white color. I would like to have the same theme in 11.1 as in 10.3. Thanks in advance, IG -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

It depends on the icon package as to whether the sources are provided, but usually, they are under ~/.icons/<iconSchemeName>/Sources l .icons/Ecliz/Sources/ -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 24 2008-06-12 00:45 left_ptr.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 820 2008-06-12 00:45 left_ptr_watch0.png -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 828 2008-06-12 00:45 left_ptr_watch1.png -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 849 2008-06-12 00:45 left_ptr_watch2.png -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 887 2008-06-12 00:45 left_ptr_watch3.png -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 902 2008-06-12 00:45 left_ptr_watch4.png <snip> I just use an icon editor to make the changes I need. -- David C.

I don't have anything in my ~/.icons directory. It is empty. I have cursor themes in /usr/share/icons/DMA-AA/cursors/ /usr/share/icons/DMZ/cursors/ /usr/share/icons/handhelds/cursors/ /usr/share/icons/Industrial/cursors /usr/share/icons/redglass/cursors /usr/share/icons/whiteglass/cursors/ 1. I don't know how I can open and view a cursor file. Eg /usr/share/icons/DMZ/cursors/left_ptr 2. It seems when I choose 'none' in kde control center, none of these cursor themes is used. Where are the files that are used then? 3. How kde/suse sets/decides what theme to use when the cursor theme is set to none? Could anyone help with these questions?

I really think it depends on the cursor packages for whether you have the source image files available or not. As you can see, the icon packages I have do have the source packages provided with them.

See the full man page for xcursorgen. Here is a snippet: xcursorgen [ -V ] [ --version ] [ -? ] [ --help ] [ -p dir ] [ --prefix dir ] [ config-file [ output-file ] ] Xcursorgen reads the config-file to find the list of cursor images along with their hotspot and nominal size information. Xcursorgen converts all of the images to Xcursor format and writes them to the output-file. Each line in the config file is of the form: <size> <xhot> <yhot> <filename> <ms-delay> Multiple images with the same <size> are used to create animated cursors, the <ms-delay> value on each line indicates how long each image should be displayed before switching to the next. <ms-delay> can be elided for static cursors. If config-file is not specified, or is specified as "-", standard input is used for the configuration file. If output-file is not specified, or is specified as "-", standard output is used for the output file. A lot of cursor packages just provide the xcursor and not the source. The source is probably available is you google for it. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
