|
|
After doing a world update the cursor gets replaced with an "X", similar to what you'd get when you start X without having any window manager installed at all. Besides that, everything is fine.
Am I missing some ebuild? Which one? Or perhaps I should try to reemerge some particular ebuilds anyway, to see if that fixes the problem? |

Perhaps someone could point me in the direction of the ebuild(s) that contain the files for the cursor in X?
I tried searching for cursor and found /usr/lib64/libXcursor.so, however, it doesn't seem that xorg nor xfce (my current window manager) depend on it. |

Cursors are kept in /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11
Cursors are chosen by your window manager or desk manager or in ~/.XDefaults
Edit to add, I use cursors from the gentoo-xcursors package, and in order to get my preferred cursor in an xterm, I remove the xterm cursor that gets installed in the /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11/gentoo-silver/cursors directory |
