PB-I'm looking forward to your KDE update.

open xterm
sudo su -
cd /
tar xvf /path/to/icons.tar
Open KDE and go to Control Center, Mouse settings, select new cursor, red and small, but it works. I will include a few options in update perhaps..

Hey Wow! This cursor is awesome 
I really like it! Plus it appears to have the effect of making taps more effective. I used to have quite the hard time using a stylus to launch anything from KMenu - now I can launch on the first try. I'm not sure why it's so greatly improved, but I'm sure glad it is. Thanks for this great addition PB!

I have included 5 or 6 cursors in my update, it should be available soon, although, my guess, is PCQ will not want to update, when she has so many custom things working good

To be honest... yes, I'm undecided on whether I want to upgrade or not because exactly like you've said - I'm not sure I want to have to customize it all again
However, would you be willing to tarball up the additional cursors (I assume they are mainly various colors) like you did this first batch? I really am impressed as to how using this little cursor is improving my stylus input accuracy. It's actually greatly improved my KDE usage experience (and I thought I was happy before).

so
mv /home/user/.kde /home/user/.kde-hold
untar new SUP.tar.bz2
cd /
tar jxvf SUP.tar.bz2
mv /home/user/.kde /home/user/.kde-pb
mv /home/user/.kde-hold /home/user/.kde
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I THINK" That you would be all set.
Again though it depends on if you want the update. The update provides other than settings, cursors, some fonts, qjoypad, with a way to start and stop joystick services. Script and shortcut to toggle usb host mode.
You could always try out my .kde settings and see if you like them, and then put yours back.
