How to change cursor size in LightDM+GTK
I'm using the GTK greeter for LightDM but the cursor looks very tiny on my laptop's 1080 display. I have already set the DPI setting and some text looks big, but the center input is still small and the cursor remains small, too. I followed some instructions here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Talk:LightDM#Cursor_size_in_lightdm-gtk-greeter which advice to use dconf as root, but doing:
dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/interface/cursor-size 32
Fails saying that the connection is closed. Also, I found out that root isn't supposed to use dconf. I tried dconf-editor with the same results, and /etc/gtk-3.0 doesn't even exist in my system (Fedora 29). What can I do?
