Yes. Just as documented under 'advanced options' in http://xorg.freedesktop.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/PointerAcceleration
For hal: <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.mouse"> <merge key="input.x11_options.AccelerationScheme" type="string">lightweight</merge> </match> or the xorg.conf equivalent: Option "AccelerationScheme" "lightweight" When the old stuff is in effect, all xset m will be 100% identical. FWIW, the lauchpad stuff sounds more like HW/hotplug/hal problems. The "Sensitivity" stuff shouldn't be used, but since you seem to intend to skip pixels anyway that's a moot point. In general, you may be better off using a high-res device or somehow increase device resolution (some mice support that).
