That works. Thanks

There are 4 alternatives which provide `x-cursor-theme'.

  Selection    Alternative
-----------------------------------------------
 +    1        /etc/X11/cursors/core.theme
      2        /etc/X11/cursors/redglass.theme
*     3        /etc/X11/cursors/whiteglass.theme
      4        /etc/X11/cursors/handhelds.theme

I changed from the default[*] 3, to 1, and it gives me back the simple
one. Then I removed the artwiz-cursor package, which seems to be the only
x cursor theme package on my computer.
