Hey guys,

so I already tried to get it from the Mageia Control Center, but searching for it it was never found in the list.

Can somebody help me install it?

Am I missing the repository the package is stored in?

Can I install it from the Terminal?

Sorry Im a noob!

I do not see this package in any of the relevant repositories, so it appears that Mageia does not support this software. You may be able to find the rpm file and install it independently of the repositories, but this often leads to problems in my experience.

Actually that's an Ubuntu package:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywo ... heme-extra
http://jamsubuntu.blogspot.de/2009/02/o ... theme.html

But the default Mageia cursor theme (Adwaita) is really close, and KDE comes
by default with the Oxygen White cursor theme (among others) which looks the same:

This can be configured in systemsettings -> workspace appearance -> cursor theme: http://userbase.kde.org/System_Settings ... rsor_Theme
