[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 415682] Re: Stuck with KDE Cursor after installing ubuntu-desktop
The issue was not fixed in lucid from my experience. It seems to kick in whenever running Qt based application interfaces (such as the ones used by skype and sun virtualbox).

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 415682] Re: Stuck with KDE Cursor after installing ubuntu-desktop
I would like to suggest a potential fix to this issue. Here is what happens when you run update-alternatives: == $ sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme There are 7 choices for the alternative x-cursor-theme (providing /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme).

Would it not resolve the bug to change this value or switch it to manual mode by default? Another idea is to have debconf ask the user for which cursor they would like although I like this idea less because it will not allow a seamless installation of kubuntu-desktop. -- Stuck with KDE Cursor after installing ubuntu-desktop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/415682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 415682] Re: Stuck with KDE Cursor after installing ubuntu-desktop
Tested in Lucid. Issue is still present. After installing kubuntu- desktop, GNOME uses KDE pointers when moving a gnome-panel item (4 pointed star cursor shows up). I believe that the issue is that KDE forces a replacement of the default cursor with its own. By going into appearance properties and changing the cursor from Default to DMZ (Black) this should correct the problem. How come Kubuntu becomes the default x-cursor-theme? Shouldn't X be left alone and each desktop environments own appearance manager manages cursor in its own interface. Looking further, shouldn't each user have the ability to use their own cursor theme as they wish without X defaults getting in the way? -- Stuck with KDE Cursor after installing ubuntu-desktop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/415682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I had the same problem too, when installing kubuntu-desktop on top of Ubuntu.

Yep, im suffering this also. I wouldnt mind having kubuntu cursor for everything (gdm/gnome/kde) but the cursors are mixed or something.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 415682] Re: Stuck with KDE Cursor after installing ubuntu-desktop
@Sebastien Bacher Thank you for changing the assigned package from gnome-desktop (Ubuntu) to xorg-server (Ubuntu). I would like some clarification of why you believe this to completely be an xorg issue. How does the API differ from previous releases where this was not a symptom of having GNOME/KDE on the same system? Just for clarification, the fact that I get the KDE cursor is not the unexpected behavior which cause by GNOME. I get the KDE cursor in GNOME, that is fine, we can say that is an xorg issue (would still appreciate a more detailed explanation). The unexpected behavior that affects GNOME is that changing the cursor in gnome-appearance-properties shows no immediate change. -- Stuck with KDE Cursor after installing ubuntu-desktop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/415682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
