Re: Tiny mouse pointers after XF4.3/KDE311/QT312

Hi.

You can change the size of the cursor in XFree86 4.3 with the XCURSOR_SIZE 
environment variable.

I have a line 'export XCURSOR_SIZE="18"' in my ~/.xsession to deal with this. 

~/.xsession is only read if you use a display manager like KDM.
When using 'startx' to start X, ~/.xinitrc is read.

You can also change the cursor-theme with XCURSOR_THEME="themename", 
whiteglass is nice.

Hope this helps.
