[Bug 356309] Re: Cursor theme in appearance preferences does not change when compiz is enabled.
I can confirm this bug on karmic 64. Cursor only changes over open applications like firefox. For me, the bug appeared with karmic, never had it before. -- Cursor theme in appearance preferences does not change when compiz is enabled. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/356309 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 356309] Re: Cursor theme in appearance preferences does not change when compiz is enabled.
In my case, with compiz enabled, the pointer theme changes only partially, creating a weird "pointer theme Frankenstein". The new theme is only notable when hovering over the "Minimise, Maximise, Close window" buttons. And it stays the same after a restart. I can apply the new theme only by clicking & changing & restarting 100 times then finally something happens. -- Cursor theme in appearance preferences does not change when compiz is enabled. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/356309 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

The issue is with Compiz. Create a folder named "default" in ~/.icons. Then create a file called "index.theme" and include the following text. Make sure to change "Name=" and "Inherits=" to the cursor of choice. Save and reload window manager. This is only a workaround but it will make your cursor work in both Gnome and GDM. In Appearance Preferances be sure to change your pointer to default. Click on the theme tab, customize, pointer tab, and select default pointer.

Cory, could u be more specific? F.e. I use the UbuntuDawn theme & MAC icons & crystalblue pointer.

Temporarily I've solved it with uninstalling all other pointer themes.

Same bug here.. Also in Lucid 64. Changing the cursor theme only works if you disable the desktop effects. Other problem relating desktop effects, it was trying to view full- screen videos (but it is also works Ok without desktop effects). (By the way, Congratulations to the Ubuntu Team for the new Lucid Lynx version just released.. It looks awesome and has enhancements in many other areas). -- Cursor theme in appearance preferences does not change when compiz is enabled. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/356309 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

The pointer changes on applications but not on the ... Desktop, panels or window title.
