Re: Good black-ish mouse pointers for crunch bang?

I hate to be totally obvious (actually, no-I-don't!), but have you tried the DMZ-Black theme that you get out of the box? wink

I find that it works quite nicely, and lets me easily tell where my mouse actually is with the outlining of it and all that.


I luse superbly, with style and aplomb.

Go to settings>user interface settings

The problem I find is that the mouse does not stay black all the time, only on certain applications. So I tend not to use them anyway

Edit: It works fine actually, across all windows

^ The above works with the version of lxappearance available in Waldorf.

For Statler:

sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme

and logout/login.


while ( ! ( succeed = try() ) );

I prefer the default x cursor theme. So I just uninstall all the mouse cursors and have the simple x default!


Punch all your friends.

That should do it, yep. And yeah, the default X cursor theme is actually pretty cool by itself. smile

Edit: Oh, and you'll probably have to log out and back in again to get the changes to stick, by the way. Mouse cursors are annoying like that. wink
