Comment 5 for bug 579704

I found it affects all windows, independent from the program running on a clean 32 bit installation with ATI graphics.
I tried to get ComixCursors-Green-Regular, which was the choice inside windows and infront of the desktop. But it changed to ComixCursors-Black-Large on window borders, window title bars and panels. sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme did not change anything, so I switched off compiz and this did the trick. After reactivating compiz changes were accepted and the pointer displayed the same cursor on window borders as well as inside window boundaries.
I'll try to reproduce that on a clean install on Wednesday. The affected computer is my girlfriend's one and she'll kill me if I try to reproduce the bug. Especially as the same solution was reported not work from another user in the German community
