slow down the mouse movt (SOLVED)

Post by gychang »

I replaced to a wireless mouse and when I save the setting under mouse sensitivity the setting is lost on boot. I tried xinput --set-prop 10 300 1.000000 as detailed here under bionicpup64 viewtopic.php?p=16079#p16079 I get an error property 300 doesn't exist...

Is there a setting adjustment to slow down the mouse cursor?

Code: Select all

# xinput help
#
# xinput list
⎜   ↳ Logitech M325                           	id=9	[slave  pointer  (2)]
#
## so my Logitech mouse is device 9
#
# xinput list-props 9
	libinput Accel Speed (287):	0.000000
#
## so the Accel Speed property is 287 and is set to 0.0
#
# xinput set-prop 9 287 1.0
#
## which sets the device 9 (my mouse) property 287 (Accel Speed) to 1.0
## which speeds up the mouse
#
# xinput set-prop 9 287 -1.0
#
## which slows down the mouse
