The old code would assume mouse delta = speed. Of course, this assumption is valid only as long as mouse updates are equally spaced in time. Under heavy load, the devices (or the kernel/whoever) would accumulate the delta. The old accel then uses that to accelerate. With polynomial accel or high accel factors, this leads to greatly exaggerated cursor movement. It drove me nuts so I decided to do something about it.
The new code doesn't fall for that. Admittedly there is still cursor jumping, but at least it jumps where you'd expect it to be. I'll try explaining that better in the docs. -Simon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
