Re:FreeBSD on the Lenovo Thinkpad

Can you please not make these ridiculous comments? The laptops that you need to manually tweak things on to get your Ubuntu or FreeBSD setup to work won't even run macOS. In fact, it's illegal to install that operating system on anything besides the ~10 pieces of hardware that Apple supports. I would offer to fix your issues with VMware Fusion, but couldn't even patch it to support HiDPI even if I wanted to because it's a proprietary closed-source application.

FYI: not only VMware Fusion but also two of my laptops also has the same problem. It's the desktop DE that has to be patched, not VMware Fusion.
The bug is about mouse pointer's size are displayed differently in GTK/non-GTK apps, if you're interested. There's lots of different 'solutions' in the web, but it's a hassle to find out what works. :-(
