x11 mouse cursor

[linkingeek]

I have few custom themes available with me for mouse cursor but i have not been able to change anyone of them on Firefox 5.
1. I have tried changing index.theme on following two locations
-usr/share/icons/default/
-home/<usr>/.icons/
2. Also applied through gconf-editor
-by desktop>peripherals>mouse
3. Changed inherits field of x-cursor-theme in etc/alternatives

And the above all methods failed,rest everywhere mouse cursor has been changed but not on firefox content window falls back to DMZ-White

-I have tried to apply following themes
Obsidian
Ecliz-Full

Use the command:

sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme

In the terminal and select the cursor theme that you want to use.
Note that there might be some cursor themes that are not available for X11, but are available for Gnome.

This command shows only few pre-installed cursor not other added cursors
