Hi Pavel,

try running the application that has the non-mapped cursor shapes from
command line, with the XCURSOR_DISCOVER environment variable set.

It will then print out messages for all cursor shapes that are
requested, and also hashes for unknown cursors. You can then use that
hash to make a symlink to the appropriate cursor in your cursor theme
directory.

Here's some that I found:
00008160000006810000408080010102 -> sb_v_double_arrow
028006030e0e7ebffc7f7070c0600140 -> sb_h_double_arrow
03b6e0fcb3499374a867c041f52298f0 -> crossed_circle
041870e1c79f7ffe017cd81306183000 -> left_ptr
08e8e1c95fe2fc01f976f1e063a24ccd -> left_ptr_watch
14fef782d02440884392942c11205230 -> sb_h_double_arrow
18602148033006600942030c7fbffe7f -> fleur
2870a09082c103050810ffdffffe0204 -> sb_v_double_arrow
3ecb610c1bf2410f44200f48c40d3599 -> left_ptr_watch

d9ce0ab605698f320427677b458ad60b -> question_arrow
dde08001020408102040800107bb0000 -> xterm
e29285e634086352946a0e7090d73106 -> hand2
f710877930e472e8c9d4d973a97de4ae -> hand1
fcf1c3c7cd4491d801f1e1c78f100000 -> fd_double_arrow

One thing that would be nice is when X would generate those hashes on
the normal, "core" cursors, so that Xcursor theme builders wouldn't have
to make symlinks for everything. Ah well.

Cheers,

Wout.

   The trouble with doing something right the first time is that nobody
   appreciates how difficult it was.
