At my pc, I didn't get it to work the way it was explained in the help.
Here's what i did :
(downloaded the 14485-Premium-0.3.tar.bz2 file to ~/tmp )
cd ~/tmp
# extracting the bz2
tar -xjvf 14485-Premium-0.3.tar.bz2
# creates a Premium-0.3 dir
cd Premium-0.3
#create a tar.gz for importing :
tar -zcvf premium.tar.gz Premium
New when I go to system settings > mouse > cursor theme, and I press 'install new'
I select the ~/tmp/Premium-0.3/premium.tar.gz file.
Now I don't get an error that he can't import the file...
Hope somebody can use this info ;)
I installed using KControl and only some of the cursors work. The arrow, text cursor, and drag all look OK, but the busy cursor and the resize cursors are all boring X11 defaults. Am I missing something here?
I figured it out-- KControl doesn't preserve symlinks when it unpacks the cursor archive. So, all the symlinked cursors show up as zero-length files.
I will file a bug report with KDE.
The hotspot on the resize cursors seems to be set in the same place as the arrow. I think it would be more natural to have these centered.
Awsome theme anyways, well done :)

Hi, great job!! Beautiful work... And thanks to include also source files... I'm thinking about include into my next version of GoblinX...

HOWTO: http://kde-look.org/help/index.php?type=36
Alternative way - copy to /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11 (if you are using x.org).
