Description frank 2002-11-05 13:26:34 UTC
Version:           head (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          GCC 3.2 
OS:          Linux

If I switch to "white mouse cursor" in kcontrol->Peripherals->Mouse and restart KDE the mouse is white. But after the next KDE restart the cursor is black again.

Greetings
Frank

I can reproduce this bug.
Problem is that .kde/share/fonts/overide directory is remove and recreate at 
each start. I didn't find what programm made it.
So I can't fix it.

Regards.

I guess it has got to do something with the kfontinstaller. Maybe that's a 
point to start having a look at.

I removed ".kde " for my user and test it, and it doesn't work.
Before I thought that it was kfontinstaller, but I removed all config file, 
and it doesn't work.
I remove also all "mkfontdir" in startkde and it doesn't work.
I don't know....
Perhaps kdesktop or kwin recreate this directory ...
I don't know...

CVS commit by coolo: 

* don't copy around the cursor file on every KDE startup, but on save
* use ~/.fonts instead of ~/.kde/share/fonts (~/.kde is created 0700 and 
  X servers run as root, which can't access ~ if it's exported over NFS)
* fixing the order in startkde so that the cursor font is always first and
  that the left_ptr is only set after the font path is correctly set up
