I am also affected by this problem. I just replaced a POS wheel mouse that moved nicely with a Logitech M705 laser mouse. The laser sensor naturally reports movement data a lot more often per inch of real mouse movement than the wheel mouse did. The mouse driver should have taken that into account when deciding how to translate mouse movement data into cursor movement.
FYI I have tried turning mouse sensitivity and acceleration down all the way in gnome-mouse-properties. This is not sufficient to make the mouse comfortable usable. It moves FAR too fast for my liking. I've also tried 'xset mouse 0 0' (which I know should have done the same thing) just to be sure g-m-p was doing what I thought it was. No change. I think it might be a shortcoming in the evdev driver: is the driver even aware of the resolution of your optical mouse's sensor? If not then a bug should be filed against evdev. If it is, maybe there needs to be quirk data for my mouse model. -- Slowest mouse speed still to fast for high DPI mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/480746 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
