If it's worth anything, I feel your pain. Not specifically about the X cursor, but since "upgrading" to RH9 I've had my share of pain. Speaking of... I'm about ready to rip and replace KDE on RH9. According to what I've read here and elsewhere, it's probably my best option to get it functioning properly. Plus, it will excise Bluecurve from KDE. :-) Does this sound reasonable? Do I need to do the same to Gnome? I wouldn't mind a bi more stability from it either. ... and if it makes you feel any better (or worse), I'm running FVWM right now on RH9 with a left arrow pointer... 'cept of course, I used an xsetroot call to get it that way! Who knows, it might have been a left arrow *without* xsetroot, but I don't know since I just used my RH7.2 ~/.fvwm2rc and haven't experimented. One nice thing - Despite all my troubles, FVWM, mutt, tin, vim and xterm just keep on cookin'... :-) -- -- Len Philpot ><> -- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://philpot.org/ -- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (alternate email) -- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
