Where in KControl or elsewhere does one go to make pointer and I-bar large enough to notice? In peripherals is only (4) mouse cursor themes, where exist no controls for any sizes. The pointer in TDM is about 4X as large as in TDE sessions, and appropriate for my needs. Is there a separate package to provide pointer controls that isn't required in a base installation?
Ther isn't. I have done it this way:
# ~/.Xresources ! Xcursor.theme: default Xcursor.size: 48
:D Confirmed on https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/482367/how-to-get-the-available-x-c...
48 was a little big, so I'm using 32. :) If anyone knows a theme that provides something in the 36-42 range I'd probably like it better. Those installed jump from 32 to 48 except for hicolor that professes to have a 36, but shows up same size as 32.
In Bookworm instead of .Xresources I created: # cat /etc/X11/Xresources/cursors Xcursor.theme: adwaita Xcursor.size: 32 # To make it the global default.
