Hi guys,
I'm new here. I recently installed Debian 9 with XFCE Desktop. Changing the mouse speed in the XFCE menu doesn't make any change. I only can change the button and the wheel direction.
I already checked older posts and it might be related to some libinput xinput change that was done in Stretch. However these posts are from 2016.
Is this still an actual problem in stable?
I'm at the cell phone now and can post more info later from my PC.

Mouse speed in Debian 9, XFCE
Re: Mouse speed in Debian 9, XFCE
I checked the pointers.xml file in ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml and when I change the settings in XFCE mouse window the new parameters are written into pointers.xml.
However my system seems to ignore it.
Kensington is my mouse:
marco@fox:~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml$ xinput
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Kensington Kensington Expert Mouse id=10 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ HID 046a:0011 id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
The parameters below are unaffected by changing the mouse acceleration:

Re: Mouse speed in Debian 9, XFCE
Well, it is a problem on kde plasma for sure, I don't know about xfce. To get the mouse settings in the control panel working I installed pkg xserver-xorg-input-evdev and made /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-evdev-mouse.confKali93 wrote:...

Re: Mouse speed in Debian 9, XFCE
I don't have the folder xorg.conf.d in /etc/X11
The folders in X11 are shown here:
xorg.conf.d is in /usr/share/X11/
Before I'm doing something wrong and screw my mouse I wait until somebody with Debian 9 + XFCE comes up. Thank you anyway!

Re: Mouse speed in Debian 9, XFCE
Hi Kali93
I had mouse issues a while back but mine was related to the wheel scrolling speed, I don't believe this is your issue but if you want to have a look at the thread as there was a lot of useful information passed on by members of the forum it might help in resolving your problem.

Hope it helps
