I updated my cooker to the newest XFree86 last night and noticed that the cursor was back to the old boring style. I went on a search and found out that there is no /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icons/default/index.theme to be found. In fact the icons directory is missing! What is the deal?

Here are the versions of XFree86:
XFree86-server-4.2.99.5-0.20030127.1mdk
XFree86-libs-4.2.99.5-0.20030127.1mdk
XFree86-4.2.99.5-0.20030127.1mdk
XFree86-75dpi-fonts-4.2.99.5-0.20030127.1mdk
XFree86-xfs-4.2.99.5-0.20030127.1mdk
XFree86-100dpi-fonts-4.2.99.5-0.20030127.1mdk

Thanks!

I noticed the same thing. A temporary work-around is to create a
.Xdefaults file in your home directory. Mine contains:

# default user settings for X
-------
Xcursor.size: 16
Xcursor.theme: whiteglass
-------
# eof

How do you mean, temporary workaround? This isn't a bug, it's a design
choice. The reversion to old cursors is mentioned in the changelog of
the latest X as something MDK have decided to do.

..... i don't like the choice much... white and redglass looked muh more "modern"...
