Did you set XCURSOR_THEME as well? Setting XCURSOR_SIZE alone is illegal. > Anyone know how this works? Depends on app. There're 3 ways cursors are set: - by client (default, via XCURSOR_SIZE + XCURSOR_THEME) - by server (cursor-shape-v1 protocol, via compositor config) - by xwayland (via Xcursor.size + Xcursor.theme in ~/.Xdefaults or xrdb) See also https://blogs.kde.org/2024/10/09/cursor-size-problems-in-wayland-explained/
