Fresh reboot:
$ xset q
[...]
Pointer Control:
acceleration: 2/1 threshold: 4
[...]
After setting it to .75
$ MouseAccel.pl6 .75
AccelSpeed = <.75>
MouseID = <15>
AccelID = <296>
PreviousAccelSpeed = <0.000000>
xinput --set-prop 15 296 .75
Logitech USB Optical Mouse acceleration speed set to .75
$ xset q | grep accel
acceleration: 2/1 threshold: 4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Setting it back to zero:
$ MouseAccel.pl6 0
AccelSpeed = <0>
MouseID = <15>
AccelID = <296>
PreviousAccelSpeed = <0.001000>
xinput --set-prop 15 296 0
Logitech USB Optical Mouse acceleration speed set to 0
$ xset q | grep accel
acceleration: 2/1 threshold: 4
Ok, so AccelSpeed isn't related the the xset pointer acceleration.
Does the Xfce dialogue track your changes done through xinput via
MouseAccel.pl6 ?
And I guess: does the mouse behaviour change with changes in either
place?
