In file: ~/.config/xfce4/mcs_settings/mouse.xml; the data type for "Mouse/Acceleration" and "Mouse/Threshold" are set ton 'int'. The GUI tool thus only allow integer values, which with some hardware is not precise enough. xset says: To set mouse acceleration and threshold: m [acc_mult[/acc_div] [thr]] m default I could set correctly my new mouse using an xset wrapper in ~/Desktop/Autostart but it would be fine that mouse config tool would allow either: - to enter a value manually, possibly decimal or fraction - to show current value, not just a position on a ruler without graduation - an hybrid ruler + numerical inc:dec arrows (seems the best choice imho) my former mouse was ok with "integer" values, I guess the importance of precision is higly dependent of the hardware, the model etc. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run xfce4-setting-show 2. go in mouse settings Actual Results: no way to have the mouse acceleration set with enough precision Expected Results: being able to set decimal values for acceleration, and possibly treshold values.
Another option would be a way to tell Xfce to not change the mouse settings. Gnome allows you to do this by setting the GConf value to -1.
Any wise comment on this one? Anyone?
