X11 cursor theme


Does anyone know how to install an "X11 cursor theme" downloaded from kde-look.org? I'm running KDE 3.5 and X.org. I have searched high and low but I can't find anything about installing these cursors I've downloaded.

First link when I Google "X11 cursor theme installation" --> http://www.xaprb.com/blog/2006/04/24...l-x11-cursors/ Maybe we're using different World Wide Webs.

i still cant get it working, i put my cursors in /usr/share/icons/theme_name/cursors and set a symbolic link from /usr/share/icons/default.kde/ to /usr/share/icons/theme_name/

I must be doing something wrong. If anyone can help me I'd appreciate it!!
