apt-get install artwiz-cursor and update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme or just edit the file /etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme and change to whiteglass after installing the cursor.

I have different cursor in knoppix 3.2. Its lots of smaller and a little bit transparent. That artwiz-cursor is too big..

I'm pretty sure that is the cursor at least that what I installed to get it if you want to check boot the cd and open the file and you will see the name there.

Well. First i installed artwiz-cursor (apt-get install artwiz-cursor) and then
update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme.
That says: No alternatives for x-cursor-theme.
So i created that /etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme-file and put following lines to it:
[Icon theme]
Inherits=whiteglass
Then i started new x but cursor is damn big.. Did i something wrong?
