Just a note here, if you put the command in your .xinitrc removing and
re-adding the device will probably reset the settings, but the
xorg.conf.d approach should be permanent (works for me without issues).

You can take every option settable through xset and set it in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d . That will then make sure the options are set
every time X starts. You can also take the xset command and write it
into ~/.xinitrc if you don't have root.

I have a 05-mouse.conf containing:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Kingsis Peripherals ZOWIE Gaming mouse"
MatchIsPointer "on"
Option "AccelerationProfile" "-1"
EndSection

You can look for the xorg.conf variable names you need in xorg.conf(5),
or just google it.

You could run xset from a udev ADD rule.

The problem with xset is that removing the device and restarting will
remove the commands. It is good to have a settings daemon, but I don't
know of one.

You didn't say what parameters you want to configure. For speed, 
acceleration and threshold you can use xset. But be warned, it has no
GUI.

[gentoo-user] [OT] application to configure mouse

2017-12-13 Thread pat 

Hi,

Sorry for this offtopic, but is there a UI standalone application to 
configure mouse? I'm using fluxbox and don't want to install gnome or 
kde.


Thanks

Pat
