Bit of background would probably be helpful but I'll take a swing at it. How did you change your cursors? I installed cursor_themes as soon as Buchan Milne announced it on the cooker list and have been using it since. Close everything you have open in any of the virtual desktops. In a terminal as super user type choose_cursor <enter> pick the global cursor setting you want accept the offer to restart the X-server and just to be certain, log out and log back in. All users (including root) should now have the same cursor. To set the cursors to be the same for all users may not be a good idea. If you have multiple users on the system some may not want to use the animated penguin as a cursor, or a flaming red one or.... <g> Hey, it's your system.
