A variety of changes to the build have rendered the once sane default
setting for cursor acceleration (xset m 7/4 0) unusable.

xset m 7/6 0

... has been included as a patch to olpc-utils and should appear in a
joyride quite soon.  You must type this into a terminal running within
sugar for it to obtain a connection to the X server and change the
settings.
