I'm having some problems with a need for a large 
mouse pointer and KDE (we need a large mouse 
pointer because the user has 4 screens all 
running at 1600x1200 and have so much real estate 
that they lose the pointer).

We took a bdf cursor font that someone had out 
there, did a bdfresize (4x), edited it with pfaedit 
to smooth out the edges.  Saved the file, converted
it to pcf, and gziped it.

We have tried putting it in:

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/cursor.pcf.gz
and it will only work for the user's next
session.  After rebooting, X complains
"could not open default cursor font 'cursor'"

tried makefonts in that directory
also tried restarting xfs
also tried rebooting a couple more times.
also tried banging my head against the wall.
none of that worked.

The offending pcf is included as an attachment.

Please CC me on any replies, thanks...
