10.3 slow mouse

Post by amtrakuk »

Morning .

I've tried changing the acceleration of the mouse pointer in the settings however it has no change, the mouse pointer seems to be set to 0 acceleration. How can I manually speed up the mouse pointer, what is the config file for the mouse setting?

The problem seems to happen on XFCE and MATE.

Thanks

Mouse acceleration is working for me on XFCE (I'm on 11.1 but should not matter), be sure to select the right Device:

I've checked it on MATE as well and can confirm that it works as it should. Tested it with GhostBSD 11.1 / MATE 1.18.

If it's still not working for you, please give us a bit more detail on what hardware you are using.

My mouse device is "sysmouse". Not sure if that is something to do with it. I know BSD can be fickle with hardware configs :)
