Hi there, I got the same cursor theme problem, but instead of xfwm4 I'm using compiz with gtk-window-decorator.
I have set the mouse theme in the XFCE dialog and modified even the corresponding values in gconf and xfconf. The behavior is VERY(!) weird: - Removed ".cache" before starting XFCE session. - On the xfdesktop and on any window decoration the default icon of the Xubuntu theme is used. - BUT(!) when clicking on the window decoration's title bar to move the window the icon from my chosen theme is used! - Cursor icons of my chosen theme are shown in application windows like Firefox, Thunderbird or QtiPlot. - Another weird example: In pidgin's buddy list window the Xubuntu default theme is used, but in two widgets in the conversation window (conversation log and entry field) the theme is changed. - Other applications like ROXterm, Qalculate and Exaile use the default theme. I can reproduce this effect on two 64bit machines: One feshly installed and the other upgraded from 10.04, where this was working quite well! Maybe this is an issue with xfce4-session? I have noticed several times since the upgrade/installation, that the session is not continued as it had been ended (Less/more windows). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967189 Title: Changing mouse theme randomly works To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-settings/+bug/967189/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
