how to increase mouse movement speed in ubuntu 16.04
Run in terminal
xinput --list --short
and find your mouse id (for meid=12
)Run in terminal
xinput --list-props 12
(change12
for the right id)- Find the id for the property
Device Accel Constant Deceleration
(for me 262) - Run in terminal
xinput --set-prop 12 262 0.1
(change12
and262
for the correct id)
The last number (0.1
) is the important value. The smaller the number the faster your cursor moves (default value is 1.0). Play around with the values till you find one that works for you and then add the command to the startup applications GUI.
Good luck
