Hi,

"alien-arena" is available for installing. In my Debian Testing
environments, only "alien-arena-data" was available but not
"alien-arena", which seems strange???

In prusaslicr I get, 100% of time, the rotating busy circle as a mouse

Hi,
After upgrading to Firefox v128 from v115, Firefox seems to have stopped using
some mouse cursors as per the active KDE theme (the Oxygen White theme, in my

the theme, FF now shows a black mouse cursor.
