Eclipse Oxygen: set cursor color (to black)

Question

After an update my Eclipse Oxygen picked white for a cursor color, which makes it almost invisible. So, instead of doing my work, I'm spending a Monday morning trying to get it back to normal - black, that is.

There are possible workarounds, like making the line background color darker, but I want to fix in a regular way.

I'm using CentOS 7.3 + Gnome. OS was also recently updated, and there were changes to the appearance. So I'm not sure, is it about OS or Eclipse. Tagging both.

Have someone had the same issue and fixed it?

Answer 1

I first tried to reproduce the issue on a VM. It worked fine, thus narrowing the problem to specific hardware and drivers.

Solved it by installing the vendors graphic card driver (NVIDIA), replacing nouveau. There is a bunch of pages describing the process, here is one:

So, it is not really a Stackoverflow question. If only I knew beforehand :).
