Hey everyone,
In case you guys haven't seen it yet, there is an X11 Mouse Cursor on KDE-Look
that took my breath away. Yeah, I fell in love with it. It is just so right
for PCLinuxOS and I want to ask you guys and gals to try it out.
It is call CursorUltim2 -
http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/CursorUltim2?content=106289 -
converted from a submission of B2R on WinCustomize (I think it's called Lens)
by Kuduk using sd2xc-2.4.pl and refined with GIMP. It has an Artistic 2.0
License.
Direct download link is

I am using it now and it somehow adds to the completeness of PCLinuxOS ...
well, kind of. ;)

Sorry guys, it's horrible. It keeps rotating on a "normal" ie not busy cursor. Completely distracting after a while and did my head in within 5 minutes. Back to "just blue" for me!

Did a little modification to the cursor theme Archie found. Now posted on LinFX in the gallery.

Dave exactly is the cursor item you don't care for? Maybe we could modify it a bit more. Are you sure you are looking at CursorUltim2p2_tar.gz the one I modifyed? The first version did constantly rotate. This mod uses a blue pointer and the "PCLOS" like rotating circle as the wait.

I do like this cursor. The arrow becoming a circle when passed over anything clickable is at first distracting, but after using it for a bit isn't so bad. I can get used to it, I think.

I think it may be the way to go by just adding the "PCLOS circle" to is as the watch and wait cursors. I'll post it shortly. Weric
