Talk:Cursor themes

Follow this page. https://github.com/i3/i3/issues/2182

On i3wm, mouse theme changes when hovering i3-bar, i3-status, etc.

Inside the window, the mouse cursor is set what I want. But outside, the mouse cursor changes into default X cursor.

And here's the solution what I found.

ln -s /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11 ~/.icons

The reason why is just Xorg can't find cursor files in '~/.icons'. When you install cursors via emerge, the cursors are installed in that path(/usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11). After that command, cursor always maintains the shape what I want.

The reason why I don't just edit this page myself, is that my english language is bad. Could someone edit for this?

※Adding 'xsetroot -cursor_name left_ptr' in '~/.xinitrc' doesn't work on gentoo. I don't know why.
