But it's ugly, and it's not "standard" to me, since Firefox is the only application I use where it shows up. AFAICT, there's no way to turn it off, and it seems to exist in all of the "themes" I tested (if it is, indeed, based on the theme). Not only that, but Firefox and Mozilla have their own status indicators, both in the tab bar and in the bottom of the browser window. And the normal X cursor has a little clock that shows up next to the pointer, which is what /I/ would consider the "std" busy indicator. Btw, removing the "redhat-artwork" RPM (along with some other random gnome stuff) seemed to fix the problem (by getting rid of all the Gnome themes). w
