Problems / Help with the fix for a miscolored X11 cursor on Intel Macs
Authored by: vnoel on Dec 04, '06 11:03:05AM

The problem is that Safari unzips archive files without asking, and the command line instructions assume the file is still zipped when you run them. If you've downloaded the file through Safari, and it's now called "xfix.tar", you have to use this command instead :

sudo tar xvf xfix.tar -C /

notice the "xvf" instead of "zxvf" -- the "z" means you're acting on a zipped file.
