Cursor issue [NOW it's Solved Yaaaay!!]

[Srinivasan]

This workaround really works fine.

And its better not to edit the file /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme as discussed in other sites/forums.

But there is a sad part too my title bar and icons on its right end(minimize,maximize,close) are not visible. And the theme is looking perfect if i set none as "Visual effects". Attaching the screenshot.

Please post a workaround for this...

Thanks for the vote of confidence Srinivasan ! as far as your title bar goes try right clicking the "compiz icon" (upper right task bar) and "reload window manager" see if that brings it back !

Thanks for your hint JOHNNYG.

I tried "Reload Window manager" and tried logoff and login several times nothing worked.

Finally i tried compizicon->Select window decorator->GTK Window Decorator and everything is working fine

That's interesting because if I right click on the Compiz Fusion icon and set Select Window Decorator to GTK Window Decorator mine is messed up even with the fix.
BUT
If I change Select Window Manager from Compiz to Metacity
I can set Select Window Decorator to GTK Window Decorator OR Emerald
and it works like it should.

Good enough for me. Now I have the pretty gold pointer and goldfinger.

It was a big black pointer, little black pointer, gold pointer, little left pointing hand and goldfinger. Depending on what was open and where I was at the time.

I did what TheeMahn said to do on the work around and it worked GREAT!
Thanks

I just want to say thanks to all who worked on this ultimate edition and to you The Mahn, you are really awesome; you guys never disappoint me when there are issues with Ubuntu . Read through these forums and find the answer I need. I did have to compile a few media programs to get them to work properly -- no big deal. It is way much less with Ultimate than with Ubuntu (e.g. Handbrake with a gui go to launchpad and download it there because if you try to compile;you'll just end up with unsolvable dependencies -- not everything is in sync yet) This is no f***N way The Mahn's fault or anybodies else's it is just not all the departments are in sync, yet. I guess i said my piece and thanks again to you all. p.s. if you download torrents , please get ipblock or moblock these are like peerguardian for windows.

Works here as well. God, that was annoying! TheeMan, once again you have lived up to your name. More importantly, thanks for the coolest release yet.
