Cursor theme settings are ignored after reboot.

Hi, i am testing Q4OS 3.8 KDE in Virtualbox before installing in a real machine and the settings of the Cursor theme are ignore every time that the system start, the settings show the choosen theme but the theme is ever the default theme in some apps like Firefox, any fix for this? thanks.

Re: Cursor theme settings are ignored after reboot.

Yes, we can confirm a Plasma issue, it doesn't follow the XDG standard locations for "kcminputrc" config file. Fortunately, it's easily possible to workaround it using a couple of commands in terminal:
$ cd $HOME/.config/
$ rm kcminputrc
$ ln -s ../.configkde/kcminputrc kcminputrc
We are working on a fix, it should be available in the next Q4OS revision.

You also need to configure cursor theme for GTK applications, like Firefox and others:
System settings > Application styles > GTK/GNOME applications > Cursor theme
