size of mouse pointer

[Wolf-Dieter Klotz]

Hi

We are using RedHat 7.x as OS for our consoles in the accelerator 
control system for the
Oak Ridge Spallation Neutron Source (http://www.sns.gov/). Typically one 
console (we have in total 7 of them) is equipped with three large 
display screens on which one workspace is split up with a special 
hardware. On these large screen surfaces we have a problem of finding 
the mouse cursor (because it is too small) with tyred eyes. That happens 
especially in the early morning after a long night shift. I have tried 
to replace the cursor bitmap, which is the standard 16x16 icon, with a 
32x32 bitmap icon with the command "xsetroot -curor big-curor 
big-cursor-mask". On Gnome, WindowMaker and good old Motif mwm that 
works very well. But on KDE this does not work!! The cursor stays small!!
What has to be done to increase the cursor on KDE ???

Hope to find an expert that knows the answer ...
