Hi, you may want to read this: http://www.x.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/PointerAcceleration
It is geared towards development, but also contains a lot of end-user info as well. > with a constant acceleration (e.g. for gaming)? Something like I'm not sure what you mean by 'constant acceleration'. This isn't really possible, because it means skipping pixels, which we don't want. Linear acceleration is likely what you want, i.e. the linear profile. > 'xset m 3 0' doesn't work, AFAICS. 'xset m 1 0' does work, but this > is way too slow on a big screen. "Doesn't work" or is not what you want? 'xset m 1 0' is a direct translation from mouse to screen, if that's too slow, your only chance is acceleration. Especially for gaming, you're unlikely to want to skip pixels. 'xset m 3 0' is a bit much acceleration, you can set a rational: 'xset m 24/10 0' Maybe your device can be set for a higher DPI value, this would probably be the only way to achieve constant acceleration. And, though I really can't recommend it, if you're using the mouse driver (not evdev), it has a "Sensitivity" option.
