superppl Registered Member Posts 1 Karma 0 OS	Can I manipulate the cursor theme via command line? Sun Aug 29, 2010 2:37 am Title kind of sums it up..... Any help would be greatly appreciated. In short: Fallout 3 has a bug in PlayOnLinux where the mouse cursor is displayed through the entire game, rather than being hidden like it should be in every other game. I tried unclutter to hide the cursor, but the cursor reappears when I click, so that didn't work. I'm currently trying another idea with an invisible cursor. I created that cursor, and I can replace the current cursor in use with that invisible cursor, but the change does not take place until I change cursor themes (and back). What I'm curious about is if I can manipulate the cursor theme via command line so that the cursor will change to the invisible one (actually more like nonexistent). The fun details are all here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9778942 Does anyone know if KDE has any such functionality? Thanks
