This bug is *super* annoying. Here is a workaround to make rsyslog discard this messages:
Create /etc/rsyslog.d/49-lp1681910.conf with: # workaround LP: #1681910 :msg,contains,"Unable to load blank_cursor from the cursor theme" ~ & stop Restart rsyslog: sudo service rsyslog restart -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1681910 Title: gnome-terminal constantly logs "Unable to load blank_cursor from the cursor theme" under gnome/wayland Status in GNOME Terminal: Confirmed Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Under GNOME/Wayland, regardless of cursor theme (I'm using 'DMZ- White', but confirmed with 'Adwaita'), whenever the terminal obtains focus and the user starts entering input, gnome-terminal will generate two log entries: Apr 11 13:39:22 localhost gnome-terminal-[28979]: Unable to load blank_cursor from the cursor theme Apr 11 13:39:22 localhost gnome-terminal-[28979]: Unable to load blank_cursor from the cursor theme This seems to be: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1417490 and related to: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775217 (though in Ubuntu 17.04 the log doesn't contain 'gdkcursor- wayland.c:170' like in the gnome bug.
