Description of problem: Sometimes when I start up my PC and login I see black mouse pointer. In mouse settings I setuped dmz mouse pointer theme. When I see black mouse pointer i can do 'xfwm4 --replace' to get white mouse pointer. I want to see allways white mouse pointer after loading my PC.
Anything in ~/.xsession-errors ? This is sporadic? Where did you save your mouse pointer theme files?

Also I created issue on XFCE https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8197. They sad that is a duplicate and closed it. I wonder it would use patch from original issue. Maybe it will be helpful.
That patch seems to be allowing it to change the cursor theme dynamically as you change it (without having to restart your session). Doesn't seem to be quite this same bug... So, when you login and don't have the correct theme, can you confirm that 'xfwm4' is running? 'ps auxw | grep xfwm4' in a terminal.
$ ps auxfw | grep xfwm taurus 1490 0.3 0.4 21060 7380 ? S 22:16 0:00 \_ xfwm4 --replace --display :0.0 --sm-client-id 206c577cf-8202-4fcc-aa26-1c70d39d66e6 taurus 1931 0.0 0.0 4436 744 pts/0 S+ 22:17 0:00 \_ grep --color=auto xfwm
That looks like a output from after you have logged in and run 'xfwm4 --replace'. Can you get one from a fresh login that shows the cursor problem before running xfwm4 --replace?
I logged, looked a black cursors, did '$ ps auxfw | grep xfwm' and only then did 'xfwm4 --replace'.
So, this happens on every login? Or only some of them?
Not every login. It happens on some of them. I solved this problem for myself. I added Xcursus.theme: dmz to /etc/X11/Xresources
Re-reading the xfce bug it seems like this is a xfwm4 issue when it doesn't load the right cursor theme on login. Would you care to note that in the upstream bug? I think he misunderstood that it wasn't applying on the fly as you change it, which wasn't the case.
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
