Setting USB mouse speed.

[blais]

Hi

I've recently upgraded from kernel vanilla-sources 2.6.11.10 to 2.6.14.2 as well as moved to udev 70 from udev 58. I'm using a USB mouse under X and now the default or "base" mouse speed is too fast. I cannot slow it down with any parameters to "xset m". I tried changing the sampling resolution with Option "Resolution" "XXXX" in my xorg.conf file. Nothing slows it down.

Does anyone know how to set the speed of that mouse?

HW is a Thinkpad T42 w/ Gentoo stable, with the following config for my mouse:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "USBMouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "SendCoreEvents" # needed for multiple devices
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection


Any pointer appreciated.

Found the solution:

you need only one mouse in xorg.conf!

xorg.conf:

Code:
Section ServerLayout"
...
InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
...
EndSection

...

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protokol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
EndSection
