Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-control-
Gnome cursor theme does not change when compiz is enabled.
System: Ubuntu 9.10 karmic amd64
updates installed
ProblemType: Bug
Architecture: amd64
Date: Sat Oct 24 12:11:56 2009
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10
NonfreeKernelMo
Package: gnome-control-
ProcEnviron:

SourcePackage: gnome-control-
Uname: Linux 2.6.31-14-generic x86_64
TEST CASE: (Warning: I'm translating the UI elements from German, from memory, so interpret them loosely.) Open the "Appearance" control panel, customize the current theme, then switch to the "Mouse pointer" tab. On a system with this bug, changing the mouse pointer size does not show an immediate effect. On a system where this bug is fixed, it goes into effect in real time.

Confirmed here - and the option to enter the cursor theme in the compiz settings is now removed.
I can set the Obsidian cursor theme and it works perfectly under Metacity.
With compiz, the effects are rather fragmented - initially, the cursor doesn't appear. Switching to metacity gives perfect results, going back to compiz may show the obsidian cursor as the cursor passes over firefox window, and back to the default cursor when the cursor passes over the desktop.
I think this bug is perhaps more with compiz.
