Doesn't make any difference here either.
Sebastien, shouldn't it be checking the return code from XChangePointerControl? |

Ok I attached a proof of concept to show that xorg (libx11 and xserver) are doing the right thing.
How to use it:
edit the main.c file and replace XXXXXXXX first with 1
build and run
that will set the minimum threshold before the mouse is accelerated.
move the mouse in one corner of the screen and measure how much mouse movement you need to do to reach the other side of the screen.
change the value again to something absurd like 2000, that means start accelerating after 2000 pixels.
Repeat the above, and measure again.
In my test i need at least 5 times more mouse movement to reach the other side of the screen and the mouse move very slowly.
As you can see the value is changed correctly by both control-center and this program. That means that the comunication between all components happen properly, but the values that control-center is setting are too low to notice the difference (at least in my specific case).

Right, it works fine on my box too, the range is just maybe too limited. Vincent, you can try by putting the acceleration to the maximum and changing the sensitivity now, you should notice a difference, could you confirm that? |
