Redhat 8.0 has replaced the X_cursor with a left_ptr.
How do I get an X_cursor back.

"xsetroot cursor_name X_cursor" is being overidden somewhere
and I can't seem to figure it out.

Okay, I know it isn't earth shattering but which is it, no one knows how


or no one cares? It shouldn't be this hard. I've gone through every init file I can find. I've used grep as well as I know how. I have macs with arrow cursors, I have windows with arrow cursors and I have linux on my laptop doing everything I want it to and with an x cursor. Now I barely use my desktop, mostly it's for the other folks using windows, but when I do use it and boot into linux I want to see a dadburn x for a dadburn cursor and dadburn it i'm sorry i installed rh8 if they hardcoded the dadburn cursor in some binary. Sure, I have the source and I can make it do whatever my talents will allow me but I don't think I should have to edit the source and recompile lord know's what binaries to get a dadburn X as a mouse pointer.

How about someone making me look and feel real foolish and tell me how easy it is to do and what a fool I must be for spending days on it with nothing to show for it but some lame rant on a mailing list.

thanks much, Mark Wade

dadburn it
