DMZ mouse icon theme not taking on full effect

theringmaster · 2007-11-08 19:05:12

I just installed the DMZ vanilla mouse cursor theme and it is not working right. It will resort back to the default xcursor theme (the crappy black one) when i hover over the panels and background, and the title bars. I am using xfce4.4 and i got the icon theme from the aur.

thanks.

Not sure if this helps, but both versions of dmz are available in the standard repos as pre-built packages:

xcursor-vanilla-dmz
xcursor-vanilla-dmz-aa

No that did not solve the problem, but thanks anyway.

I tried installing this same cursor theme on my gnome arch (via virtual box) and it worked flawlessly. This makes me think that xfce4.4 is having a problem with this theme. conflict maybe??

hrmm honestly I have no idea, but I can't see how any component of Xfce could be conflicting with an Xcursor theme, seeing how Xfce doesn't contain any icons itself.

just an fyi. the only application that the icon theme is actually used in is firefox and thunderbird. hmmmm I don't know why it won't go system wide.

What's your .Xdefaults look like?
