Hi All,
I use my laptop at work via X11 forwarding (to my main desktop which is a
mac). I usually initiate a ssh session and then run:
/opt/trinity/bin/kdeinit -no-kded
This starts a kde session without the kded daemon (which launches kicker
and kdesktop and so). For some reason however my X cursor isn't set
properly, and instead it's the very ugly default one (which drives me
insane), instead of the one I set in kcontrol. This only happens on x11
forwarding and not on my local sessions.
Anyone have any ideas?

just for clearification:
You are running X11 locally, use xterm (or someting simillar) and ssh to the
target computer, there you do "/opt/trinity/bin/kdeinit -no-kded"? If yes,
what is the initial cursor theme? Is it the default cursor?

I think it must because it is getting set somehow. by default it uses the
regular mac one until set otherwise

It appears not to matter actually - it always uses that cursor without
either command. I suppose that it is just a default somewhere.
Where would a default cursor be set?

I think it must because it is getting set somehow. by default it uses

So this works, i.e. sets the cursor:
ssh somebody@localhost "/opt/trinity/bin/kdeinit -no-kded"
But this does not, i.e. does not set the cursor:
ssh somebody@sunnybeach "/opt/trinity/bin/kdeinit -no-kded"
Is this right?
