One of my displays is a large 2K screen.  It's presence causes Qt (both

This is easily fixed in my Plasma session though the Cursor Theme in
system settings.

Does anyone know how to make an equivalent configuration change for KDM?


This turns out to be almost as simple as it is undocumented.  All that's
necessary to run kdm with XCURSOR_SIZE set to the desired value (24 in
my case).  The theme can be set with XCURSOR_THEME, if desired.

So I've used 'systemctl edit kdm' to create an override file
(/etc/systemd/system/kdm.service.d/override.conf):

  [Service]
  Environment="FREETYPE_PROPERTIES=truetype:interpreter-version=35"
  Environment="XCURSOR_THEME=breeze_cursors"
  Environment="XCURSOR_SIZE=24"
