  1. https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/pointer-acceleration.html This article might be the key to reach a 1:1 dot:pixel translation. If I'm right, the flat profile and a "factor" of 1 should do the trick. Will test as soon as I'm in the mood to re-install Ubuntu (it destroys itself after days).
  2. My distance comparison shows a very strange behaviour. Things might be a lil bit more complicated than just setting a correct sensitivity value. To move the mouse cursor 1920 pixels (one full screen) from left to right, you need: 55,7mm in Windows and 51,5mm in Linux. (-7,5%) To move the mouse cursor 1080 pixels (one full screen) from up to down, you need: 38,0mm in Windows and 43,0mm in Linux. (+13,2%) To make a 360° turn to the right in ET, you need: 63,0mm in Windows and 14,1mm in Linux. (-77,6%) To make a 180° turn from up to down, you need: 64,4mm in Windows and 40,7mm in Linux. (-36,8%) These results make me think of I didn't manage to disable acceleration properly... I'm using Windows 10 x64 Prof. as Windows and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS x64 as Linux. The game I was testing was Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory (ET) with Sensitivity=3.8, cg_fov=107, r_customwidth=1920, r_customheight=1080, m_* values set to same defaults)
  3. This is my first post in here, so HI EVERYONE!!! For some reason* I'm testing around with Linux (Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS 64-Bit) as a gaming machine. While doing so, I have noticed that linux' mouse speed is drastically different from that one of windows. There is a slow base speed and a fast acceleration. I couldn't even find a checkbox for "acceleration" in its control panel, only a slide bar for mouse speed with continuous sliding and without any numbers. I also notices that the mouse sped in my favourite game Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory also is completely different (of course I've adjusted ingame "sensitivity" setting). So I started googling for how to set linux mouse speed to windows mouse speed, and I've found 3 kinds of answers: - use the slide bar. - There is a console command to adjust base speed, acceleration threshold and acceleration scale. - You should not wonder that a different OS has a different mouse behaviour as another OS. It is not possible to adjust linux's mouse behaviour to that one of windows. You'll get used to that (even MUCH better) one of linux. I don't find these answers very satisfying. And for knowing the kind of device we are talking about (a computer mouse...), I know that it is just a "camera" detecting movement of the device on a surface, translating it to movement in dots in x- and y-direction, sending it to a pc, whose operating system then translates the raw dot input into movement in pixels on the screen. I don't know why the fuck it should not be possible to adjust the mouse behaviour of one operating system to exactly represent that one of another OS, no matter what god damn dots-to-pixels translation function the operating system uses by default. (sorry for my upset selection of words... I am really sick of people telling me "this is not possible" and tired of showing them "it is".) So, after this unsatisfying googling, I thought the best place to ask how to do so, would be in this forum. You show how to adjust mouse speeds of different games to match each other, so who else should better know how to adjust Ubuntu's mouse speed to that one of Windows as you? I have a Logitech MX Revolution with 800 DPI (The SetPoint slider is in the middle, so the driver/hardware based dpi scaling should not be applied) and a WPS of 6/11 (I have never touched it, so it should still be 6/11 which means 1:1 dot-to-pixel translation, when I remember right). Thanks in advance for your answer! Best regards, Rhino *I have a self-made gaming-pc from 2009. It has full XP support. But my new graphics card (R9 390) doesn't have XP drivers anymore. On the other hand, my motherboard doesn't have Windows 10 support, which leads into messy errors (there is an input delay; sound/video starts to stutter/microfreeze when I press a button on a PS/2 keyboard; I have a performance loss to ~60% in W:ET). In Ubuntu I have 162 fps by playing back a demo which plays with 90-104 fps in windows 10, so it could be a good replacement for that one game.
