I've had the same problem on various desktops. The only thing that worked for me on Solaris 11.3 with Gnome and HAL was to do it through HAL. There's some information in /etc/hal/fdi/preprobe/10osvendor/10-x11-input.fdi and also on the web. You should find an empty directory /etc/hal/fdi/policy/30user . Create a file 10-x11-input.fdi in that directory to reduce the mouse sensitivity. You have to restart HAL or log out and log in again to activate the change. I'll attach the file I used. I don't know if it will work on other desktops. -- -Gary Mills- -refurb- -Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada-
