Description Ukyoi 2013-08-24 16:47:02 UTC
Thanks for reading this wish.

Although KDE has an advanced tab to set mice behaviors, it lacks of some functions. For example, I have more than one mouse but I can't adjust them separately. Besides, the value of the acceleration setting provided by KDE is between 0.1 to 20 and it's not enough for some sensitive device.

I wrote a naive tool to change the "Constant Deceleration" value separately by calling xinput. (The code is on https://github.com/ukyoi/simpmouse .) I can just use my humble tool, but it will be really good if KDE supports a more powerful tool to achive these.

Reproducible: Always

maybe the current KCM already does it: it offers 2 profiles for acceleration.

The code offered above is KDE4 unfortunately.
