Mouse Acceleration in Manjaro 18.0.1












0














Hi the configuration of Mouse Acceleration is a very weird Manjaro Cinnamon edition. Maybe someone can help me to understand how it works.



I tried to change the setting via gue in mouse setting, it seems like the system just ignores the setting there so that panel is simply useless.



I have installed xinput. Tried setting xinput --set-prop 16 'libinput Accel Speed' -0.8 It did not work initially.



So then I started reading the article Mouse Acceleration - wiki.archliniux.org tried to create /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-mouse-deceleration.conf system simply ignored it.
Then erased 50-mouse-deceleration.conf and created new one 99-libinput-custom-config.conf which I found here forum.manjaro.org, it changed something but xinput list-props 16 still showed acceleration at 0, if I changed it using this command xinput --set-prop 16 'libinput Accel Speed' -0.8 it substantially reduce the mouse speed, which I was really happy about.
But now the problem is that I can't make the change permanent. I tried adding this command in ~/.xinitrc at the end with exec and without. But after restart the libinput Accel Speed remains at 0.



xset doesn't seem to work at all. Can you please help.
