A new cursor option is pretty nice. I went to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icons/default/ and edit the index.theme following: Change from... Inherits=core to... Inherits=whiteglass Save it and restart X. It should come out as white, transparents and drop shadow. I think, it's really easy on the eyes, but the drop shadow is little too far. Current, I am searching for a nice cursor theme that has the right size of drop shadow, no transparent (plain bevel white) and etc. Maybe, I can try to check in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icons/whiteglass/ and see if I can poke around with it. :-) It seems like it's lacking on the man page and doc about it. :-| If anyone find the manpage or doc about it, please let me know. I do really think X needs to work on avoid of restart X to recoginze the options change. I hate to restart X! :-P Cheers, Mezz _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-gnome" in the body of the message
