Dear Folks, I know that xmonad doesn't directly control the cursor, but I often have trouble finding mine. Any suggestions on what I can do? I've cycled though all the possibilities with xsetroot -cursor_name and they're all too small. -- Nick Urbanik http://nicku.org nicku@nicku.org GPG: 7FFA CDC7 5A77 0558 DC7A 790A 16DF EC5B BB9D 2C24 ID: BB9D2C24

If you are still using the builtin x cursors try some from kde-look.org. I'm running GT3-small. Mike

I set the cursor theme and size in my ~/.Xresources: ------------8<-------------- Xcursor*theme: aero-large-drop Xcursor*size: 24 Xft.dpi: 100 ------------8<-------------- and merge it in ~/.xinitrc: ------------8<-------------- xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources ------------8<-------------- Cheers, Sergey
