Journald spammed with "cursor image size (32) not an integer multiple of theme size (24)" when shaking the cursor around

Hello friends,

I’d imagine this is a bug?


All I have to do is shake my mouse around, and this error is spammed in Journald.

By default in “accessibility” system settings, there is an option “Shake Corsor” which is enabled and causes the mouse to get massive when you shake it around. But I’ve disabled it, since it seems useless to me.

It would make sense if there was a graphical error caused by the mouse enlarging and shrinking because of the “Shake Cursor” feature, but I have that feature disabled. So it doesn’t make sense why this error is occurring.

Which mouse cursor are you using? Does it happen with the default breeze cursor?

Yes, default cursor.

This looks like it happens with GTK windows? Seems like you are hitting a GTK bug: GTK 4 Apps Using Cursor Size of 64 On Any KDE Wayland HiDPI Scaling / Applications & Desktop Environments / Arch Linux Forums

Ps. Its better if you add text as text and not as a image. Otherwise is hard to search for related issues.
