Closes #22264 On Linux, the arrow cursor style currently used by Zed is `arrow`. However, this style might not be available in most themes, causing the cursor to fall back to system default theme. Note cursor style are platform (X11 and Wayland) agnostic. Most themes use `left_ptr` as their arrow cursor style instead of `arrow`. In some cases, `left_ptr` and `arrow` are symlinks pointing to the `default` style, but the `default` style is not guaranteed to be available across all themes. After inspecting the available cursor themes on popular desktop environments, changing the default from `arrow` to `left_ptr` seems to be available in all of them. `left_ptr` as default cursor style is also mentioned in [Arch Wiki: Cursor themes](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Cursor_themes#Change_X_shaped_default_cursor). KDE: ```sh tims@lemon /u/s/icons> find . -name "arrow" ./Breeze_Snow/cursors/arrow ./breeze_cursors/cursors/arrow ./Adwaita/cursors/arrow tims@lemon /u/s/icons> find . -name "default" ./default ./Breeze_Snow/cursors/default ./breeze_cursors/cursors/default ./Adwaita/cursors/default tims@lemon /u/s/icons> find . -name "left_ptr" ./Oxygen_White/cursors/left_ptr ./KDE_Classic/cursors/left_ptr ./Oxygen_Yellow/cursors/left_ptr ./Oxygen_Blue/cursors/left_ptr ./Oxygen_Black/cursors/left_ptr ./Breeze_Snow/cursors/left_ptr ./breeze_cursors/cursors/left_ptr ./Adwaita/cursors/left_ptr ./Oxygen_Zion/cursors/left_ptr ``` Gnome: ```sh tims@orange:/usr/share/icons$ find . -name "arrow" ./DMZ-Black/cursors/arrow ./Adwaita/cursors/arrow ./redglass/cursors/arrow ./whiteglass/cursors/arrow ./handhelds/cursors/arrow ./Yaru/cursors/arrow ./DMZ-White/cursors/arrow tims@orange:/usr/share/icons$ find . -name "default" ./Adwaita/cursors/default ./default ./Yaru/cursors/default tims@orange:/usr/share/icons$ find . -name "left_ptr" ./DMZ-Black/cursors/left_ptr ./Adwaita/cursors/left_ptr ./redglass/cursors/left_ptr ./whiteglass/cursors/left_ptr ./handhelds/cursors/left_ptr ./Yaru/cursors/left_ptr ./DMZ-White/cursors/left_ptr ``` My theme is set to Oxygen Yellow here.

If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to theacceptedarray inscript/licenses/zed-licenses.toml. - Is
