Change cursor?

Hello, I am from sweden.
Completely new to LXDE, running Masonux (built on Ubuntu 9.04).
Is it possible to change the ugly default cursors?

You can set the cursor theme in the file .Xdefaults in your /home. Like:

Xcursor.theme: Eclipse
Xcursor.size: 40

"Eclipse" is the exact dir name form where the cursor dir exists, either in .icons or /usr/share/icons, maybe even /usr/local/share/icons

.

Cant make it work. Downloaded a cursor theme and did what you said.

Are you running openbox as wm? I'm not familiar with your distro. My tip is for openbox.

Solved now. Downloaded the theme DMZ-White with synaptic, then created .Xdefault with this content:

Code: Select all

Xcurser*theme: DMZ-White

I copied this from my Chrunchbang installation.
