busy.

Eric,

Is it a USB or PS2 mouse? 

If it is USB, try this:

moused -t auto -r 300 -p /dev/ums0 -z 4

If it is PS2, try this:

moused -t auto -r 300 -p /dev/psm0 -z 4

/dev/sysmouse is used primarily to provide an interface for X to read mouse events 
when moused is blocking the real mouse device.

the -z 4 mouse is unnecessary, but provides support for the wheel if you have one and 
are using moused with X.

I dont't know if this will really make a difference, but: X can run the
mouse with moused or by itself. You could try if the second scenario works any
better.

Still, having a "xset m 4 2" line in my .xinitrc gives me a much more
responsive mouse. Not only in KDE, but in all other window managers I
use too. That's the advantage of having this line instead of only
setting it in mouse properties (KDE).

-(if you set it in KDE system make sure you set *both* sliders and not
just the one for accelaration)-

Okay I tried both solution but neither worked.  Few more detail
I for got to include, it's a Logitech optical mouse and I am primarily
concerned with the mouse speed in KDE.  Just as a note to make sure I
didn't do anything wrong, I changed the file /etc/X11/XF86Config but
just by un ticking the line the read  and
changed the number to "300".  That made no noticeable change.  Next I
used the command  also I did it with
"high" instead of "300" both time no noticeable difference.

In /etc/X11/XF86Config, look for the mouse section and insert this line:

Option "Resolution" "300"

man moused, and read about the -r option. You can use the actual dpi number if you 
know it, or just use 'high' and that works also.

It works quite well.
