Ok try this one.
Install comixcursors...
Code:
sudo apt-get install comixcursors-righthanded-opaque
The comixcursors themes do not contain cursor.theme files.
In order to add to alternatives the theme needs a cursor.theme file.
You need to create a cursor.theme file for the ComixCursors-Opaque-Black-Large theme.
Code:
gksudo gedit /usr/share/icons/ComixCursors-Opaque-Black-Large/cursor.theme
...and copy and paste into the created cursor.theme file
Code:
[Icon Theme]
Inherits=ComixCursors-Opaque-Black-Large
Save and close.
Using the terminal, add the theme to alternatives...
Code:
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme x-cursor-theme /usr/share/icons/ComixCursors-Opaque-Black-Large/cursor.theme 20
Using the terminal, select the theme in dconf and alternatives...
Code:
CURSOR=ComixCursors-Opaque-Black-Large
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-theme "$CURSOR" && sudo update-alternatives --set x-cursor-theme /usr/share/icons/$CURSOR/cursor.theme
Log out/in
If you want to change back to the default cursor (DMZ-White)...
Code:
CURSOR=DMZ-White
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-theme "$CURSOR" && sudo update-alternatives --set x-cursor-theme /usr/share/icons/$CURSOR/cursor.theme
Log out/in
As you can see I've used a variable ($CURSOR) for the name of the theme so if you want to set it back to black
use CURSOR=DMZ-Black instead of CURSOR=DMZ-White in the first command.
