>Description:
After installing adwaita-icon-theme, I had issues setting it up,
even though I added Adwaita to my .Xresources.
In most distros I've used, that should be sufficient.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install netbsd, adwaita-icon-theme, add Xcursor*theme: Adwaita
to .Xresources. On CWM, the cursor theme is not applied.
Similarly adding Adwaita to Xresources for xdm does not apply
it.
>Fix:
The reason I think it occurs is because XCURSOR_PATH does not include
/usr/pkg/share/icons
by default.
Therefore, updating the environment variable to include the path
should fix it.
Another way to solve it is by symlinking Adwaita cursor theme folder to
/usr/share/icons, but that seems like a less good solution.
I am happy to supply my first patch as I want to contribute. However
before that, I'd love to get feedback on where it is most appropriate
to make the changes. My thinking is:
- Change default Xsession for xdm to include the environment variable
XCURSOR_PATH set to include /usr/pkg/share/icons
- Change default .profile to include the environment variable
XCURSOR_PATH set to include /usr/pkg/share/icons
Would that be appropriate?
