dynamic mouse(d) acceleration
Dear list, is it possible to get dynamic mouse acceleration with Xorg? moused only supports linear acceleration. Everytime I have to work with windows I love to return to my FreeBSD Workstation, but I'm missing the windows mouse support. Even after years of acclimatization to X mouse, the windows mouse movement is much much better, more intuitive (natural) I think. My greatest wish was moused with dynamic acceleration.

If you use kde run the command 'kcmshell mouse'. This pops up a configuration dialog where you can change the values of 'Pointer acceleration' and 'Pointer threshold' to your needs. Gnome has something similar, it's 'gnome-mouse-properties'. On some wm like xfce there seems to be no command available, however they provide a mouse config dialog in their settings menu.

That will affect you mostly on text consoles. X already does somewhat more adaptive mouse acceleration: play around with the parameters for xset m. And look at your window manager, whichever one it is; some of them have additional mouse-input capabilities built-in. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
