Bad news After turning on the computer this evening, QT applications have white cursor and GTK applications black cursors. Something is broken in the GTK theming in KDE.

Re: GTK themes in KDE

Thank you for your advice. After four or five reboots(*) and changing themes and cursors, all cursors are white everywhere. I noticed that every time I change the theme, the cursors resets, so the correct way to do it is to set the theme, restart(*), set the cursors, restart(*) and check

Re: GTK themes in KDE

After spending some time changing themes back and forth I achieved something funny in QT applications: white cursor over window title and black cursor over window content. It seems something is messed up with KDE themes, both in QT and GTK. I left the black cursors for now... at least they are

GTK themes in KDE

Hello! Today I faced an interesting problem. After a clean KDE installation in Debian Sid the default theme was Breeze, which is ok for me, but I changed the cursor theme to Breeze light, just because I'm used to white cursors... But soon I noticed the cursor changed to a black one over GTK
