My only experience is with xfce desktop and I can confirm that from version 16 at least, mouse sensitivity and acceleration settings didn't work correctly. Generally it was either too slow or too fast. I was happy with too much acception so I didn't complain. But they have updated the xorg server so something may have gone wrong. And I don't think we are going to hear a lot of complaints about this. Neither sensitivity nor acceleration do anything at all in this version. Everything is just constant. And certainly I am not going to mess with system packages to solve this. @clel Geschwindigkeit is just velocity or speed. For acceleration they should have used Beschleunigung. The sensitivity adjusts the relationship between physical mouse movement and the pointer movement. How precise it is. The acceleration increases the ratio between pointer movement and mouse movement depending on the speed or Geschwindigkeit of the mouse itself. In other words it translates mouse speed into pointer acceleration or Beschleunigung. So you can call it speed if you mean mouse movement, but acceleration if you mean pointer movement. Sensitivity and acceleration settings are distinct and I cannot see how they can combine them unless they just discard one, probably the sensitivity, and keep accelerate and rename it to speed or Geschwindigkeit.

Settings slidebars are set at the maximum acceleration, but it only affects the touch pad, the mouse is extremely slow.
