Hi Bill,
Firefox is probably unable to detect the correct GDK cursor theme on your
system, which affects the display of many cursor types. I had the same problem
as I'm using a rather minimalistic window manager.
You can check the currently active theme in a terminal using:
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-theme
Additionally, try checking the following, though they may return nothing:
echo $XCURSOR_THEME
xrdb -query | grep Xcursor.theme
To manually work around the issue, try setting the desired theme using the name
returned by the first command, e.g.
export XCURSOR_THEME=Adwaita
Then restart Firefox for the change to take effect. For a more permanent
solution, consider exporting `XCURSOR_THEME` in one of your session startup
scripts, such as `~/.xinitrc` or `~/.xprofile`, depending on your setup.
I'm not sure whether this should be fixed in the ports/packages infrastructure
or addressed upstream at mozilla.org.
