Well, in fact the mouse acceleration (or deceleration, for that matter) isn't a relic of the nineties any more. Especially fast-paced games could as well profit from it, since it combines precision and speed in a manner high-DPI alone can't, period. It's 1.6rc/git only, though. Anyway, you can switch it so off it won't even consume CPU cycles, nor be re-enabled through rampant desktop engines, which is probably crucial: <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.mouse"> <merge key="input.x11_options.AccelerationScheme" type="string">none</merge> </match> _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
