I have tried all sorts of mice, either a Logitech Trackman (my
preferred), or a wired USB mouse, nothing.

Even tried a USB/PS2 adapter and used a few different mice, still
nothing.

Title:
  Mouse speed/acceleration ignored in 17.04

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrading to 17.04 my mouse (a plain Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical
  Mouse) is much slower and nothing I do changes its speed.

  Tried through the settings GUI, using xset and using xinput. Nothing
  seems to do anything. The only thing that offers some feedback is
  xinput, that complaints about a value out of range:

  $ xinput --set-prop 8 289 2
  X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for 
operation)
Major opcode of failed request:  131 (XInputExtension)
Minor opcode of failed request:  57 ()
Value in failed request:  0x121
Serial number of failed request:  19
Current serial number in output stream:  20
  where 8 is the device id, 289 is the "libinput Accel Speed", and 2 is the 
desired multiplier:

  $ xinput --list --short
  ⎡ Virtual core pointerid=2[master pointer  (3)]
  ⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer  id=4[slave  pointer 
 (2)]
  ⎜   ↳ Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse id=8[slave  pointer 
 (2)]
  ⎣ Virtual core keyboard   id=3[master keyboard (2)]
  ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5[slave  
keyboard (3)]
  ↳ Power Buttonid=6[slave  
keyboard (3)]
  ↳ Power Buttonid=7[slave  
keyboard (3)]
  ↳ Media Center Ed. eHome Infrared Remote Transceiver (185b:3020)  id=9

  ↳ LITEON Technology USB Multimedia Keyboard   id=10   [slave  
keyboard (3)]
  ↳ Nuvoton w836x7hg Infrared Remote Transceiverid=11   [slave  
keyboard (3)]

  Basically I can set that value in the range 0..1, with no effect
  (although it is reported correctly by xinput --list-props), or outside
  and getting the error. Likewise, changing values with xset shows them
  as changed, but the mouse is oblivious to it.

  
  Finally, I tried in a live USB and at least via the settings GUI there's no 
noticeable difference between either extreme setting of the slider.

I too have similar problem after upgrading to 17.04. Logitech marble
ignores all xinput settings or xorg.conf settings to allow button 9 to
scroll. XEV confirms mouse click, but nothing happens. Tried in E-17 and
LXDE.

I have the same problem on XPS 15 9550, the problem occurred after
upgrading from 16.10 to 17.04.

Tried the Terminal way and xset, different mouses, wired and wireless
but nothing helped.

  ↳ Nuvoton w836x7hg Infrared Remote Transceiverid=11   [slave  
keyboard (3)]

  Basically I can set that value in the range 0..1, with no effect
  (although it is reported correctly by xinput --list-props), or outside
  and getting the error. Likewise, changing values with xset shows them
  as changed, but the mouse is oblivious to it.

  
  Finally, I tried in a live USB and at least via the settings GUI there's no 
noticeable difference between either extreme setting of the slider.
