Interesting. Under Xfce, when you go to Settings->Mouse->Theme, you not
only get to set the size of the cursor you get a preview of all the
various shapes. Except, that is, for the Default, which doesn't show
you a preview. Just to be thorough, would somebody using KDE tell us
what you get there?

You get previews for all installed cursor theme, including "default". You get size
selections only if available in the cursor theme.

Make sure you have gnome-tweak-tool installed. You will then find it
under accessories in the application menu. It is one of those
packages that I always install, and do not think about. (Midnight
Commander is another one.)
