This cursor seemlessly get integrated with KDE and beautify it a bit more. Other X applications like Mozilla, Netscape, MTV etc., also are easy to use.Just untar the '134-Cursor.tgz' by:
# tar -zxvf 134-Cursor.tgz
Before this don't forget to backup the XF86's cursor.pcf.gz file.
to use it, just copy (if you are root)
# cp cursor.pcf.gz /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/cursor.pcf.gz
(if not root)
# cp cursor.pcf.gz ~/.kde/share/fonts/override/cursor.pcf.gz
and restart KDE (logoff and logon again). That's it.

I hate the default "hand" pointer in KDE (which appears when the cursor is on a link). The cursor to edit the text is fine too. The only one I need now is the "waiting" cursor. Thanks again.
use the XP cursor. It looks much better. Just put the cursor over a white background than press print scrn and open it up ina graphics program and crop out only the cursor.
I love this one because a white cursor with a black conture is much more precise when working with images/sound processing software. Thanks!
...if more different looking mouse mointers were created, maybe one like the pointer from Enlightenment, but cleaner or other stylish creations!! That's what I think what would make KDE look absolutely perfect.
The mozilla Scroll Bar is rather easy to click on and drag due to the pointer instead of just a clock. This is the update for the moment. I wish to add 3 more different cursors soon... :)
Thanx!
