Public bug reported:
I just installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu Xenial (16.04).
As I like the comixcursors more than the default mouse-pointer, I wanted to
make comixcursors (0.8.2-1) the default for the system, with the following
commands:
apt-get install comixcursors
update-alternatives --set x-cursor-theme
/usr/share/icons/ComixCursors-Slim-Blue/index.theme
First it seems to work, if I add the "Inherits" line in the index.theme
file pointing to itself:
Inherits = ComixCursors-Slim-Blue
After a reboot, the Blue ComixCursor shows up on the login screen
(lightdm).
Unfortunately another problem came up.
Logging in to the default unity desktop did not work anymore. Compiz crashed
with the following message:
compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in malloc_consolidate()
And unity7 tries to respan itself:
upstart: unity7 main process (3046) killed by SEGV signal
upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning
If I change the "Inherits" to something else, the comicursor is not used
anymore.
