[SOLVED] Mouse Sensitivity Suddenly Extremely Low

EDIT: I solved the issue after a couple of hours of toying with it (I guess I should have held off on making a post for 5 more minutes smile ) but the problem was a Razer Synapse update on my Windows partition.  I uninstalled Razer Synapse since I wasn't using it really anyway and this fixed my problem on Arch.  Perhaps Razer Synapse stores data on the mouse itself: I think I remember this being an advertised feature when I bought the mouse a long time ago, which is why it was causing problems cross-parition.




Some update must have changed something, because now when booting my mouse is extremely low sensitivity.

Relevant Info:
* Razer Mamba mouse, using GDM

* Before the Cinnamon sensitivity slider in the settings menu would affect mouse sensitivity, but now it does nothing.

* I tried adding the following script to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d named 10-mouse-config.conf

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "RazerCfg"
    MatchIsPointer "yes"
    Option "AccelerationProfile" "0"
    Option "ConstantDeceleration" "0.1"
EndSection

But if I look at xinput list-props for my device, I see that the Acceleration Profile is set to 0 but the ConstantDeceleration value is 1.0 at startup, which is way too slow.  Maybe this script is being overwritten by something somewhere else.

* I can use xinput to set the sensitivity manually by hand, but if I set ConstantDeceleration to what I want (0.1) then the cursor moves in increments of several pixels.  Makes it impossible to click on anything small.  It didn't used to do this.  However my mouse was configured by default + the cinnamon config was good enough.

* The relevant part of Xorg.0.log that contains Mamba info is here

* I can't use the razercfg tool that is on the Razer section of the Wiki as it does not support my mouse.

Please let me know if I need to post more information or if anybody has an idea for what might have caused my settings to suddenly change.  The primary problem here is 1. For some reason my setting in my file in xorg.conf.d of ConstantDeceleration is not being used at startup and 2. Just setting the constant deceleration to the value I want causes the mouse to jump instead of being smooth.

Re: [SOLVED] Mouse Sensitivity Suddenly Extremely Low

Hi there, I am having the same problem. Can you share how you configured the acceleration with xinput yourself?

I've used the "xinput list" and "xinput list-props" to identify the mouse (together with xinput disable/enable). However, I do not see any acceleration that I can configure.

Device 'Microsoft Microsoft® 2.4GHz Transceiver v9.0':
	Device Enabled (142):	1
	Coordinate Transformation Matrix (144):	1.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 1.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 1.000000
	libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled (279):	0
	libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled Default (280):	0
	libinput Scroll Methods Available (281):	0, 0, 1
	libinput Scroll Method Enabled (282):	0, 0, 0
	libinput Scroll Method Enabled Default (283):	0, 0, 0
	libinput Button Scrolling Button (284):	2
	libinput Button Scrolling Button Default (285):	2
	libinput Middle Emulation Enabled (295):	0
	libinput Middle Emulation Enabled Default (296):	0
	libinput Accel Speed (286):	0.000000
	libinput Accel Speed Default (287):	0.000000
	libinput Accel Profiles Available (288):	1, 1
	libinput Accel Profile Enabled (289):	1, 0
	libinput Accel Profile Enabled Default (290):	1, 0
	libinput Left Handed Enabled (291):	0
	libinput Left Handed Enabled Default (292):	0
	libinput Send Events Modes Available (264):	1, 0
	libinput Send Events Mode Enabled (265):	0, 0
	libinput Send Events Mode Enabled Default (266):	0, 0
	Device Node (267):	"/dev/input/event14"
	Device Product ID (268):	1118, 1957
	libinput Drag Lock Buttons (293):	<no items>
	libinput Horizontal Scroll Enabled (294):	1

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Edit:
I misread your title and assumed that you are trying to configure the mouse scroll lock sensitivity
