If you miss the clean white pointer from older Ubuntu desktops, this one brings it to Windows. Towednack rebuilt the classic DMZ cursor set, a light theme with soft gray edges and animated states like the spinning wait wheel, saved as crisp AVIF images. It runs as a live desktop cursor through Mouse X on Steam, which costs $2.99 once and includes every Workshop skin, with a free demo to try first. A good pick for longtime Linux users who want their old pointer back.

“This cursor theme is based on the DMZ Cursor Theme, originally created for use with Linux and distributed as free and open-source software. =) It has a General Public License, version 3 (GPL-3.0), which means you can…” (Towednack, on the Workshop)

  2. Subscribe to this skin on its Workshop page, or find “Ubuntu/DMZ Cursor Set” in the in-app browser.

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Ubuntu/DMZ Cursor Set cursor?

Install Mouse X from Steam, then subscribe to the skin on its Workshop page (or inside the app). Mouse X downloads it and you can apply it with one click. No .cur files, no Control Panel digging.

Does it work on Windows 11?

Yes. Mouse X supports Windows 10 and 11, uses very little memory and CPU, and doesn’t hook or inject into games or other apps, so it runs quietly alongside everything else.

Is this cursor free?

The skin itself is free, like everything on the Mouse X Workshop. Mouse X is $2.99 on Steam, and the free demo lets you try custom cursors before buying.
