The cause of this bug is that GNOME can't find all the cursor icons it needs. A workaround is to force use of the Adwaita cursor theme, by creating the following symlink in your home directory: ${HOME}/.icons/default/cursors -> /run/current-system/profile/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/ This should solve the problem for you. To close this bug, Guix should automatically take care of this cursor business, but I don't know enough about desktop standards etc to fix this myself at the moment. Sincerely, Thomas
