I wonder whether this is bad Polish localization
("acceleration"
used instead of "speed") or is the term acceleration actually
used in English TDE as well?
In German it's called acceleration as well, and in English, too. Me
thinks, it's rather a technical term as one from the users POV.
There seems to be a basic speed from the X-window system, which is
then "accelerated" by a factor exponentially increased in
dependence of the initial speed of mouse movement. I guess one
would have to look at the source code for the exact algorithm… ;-)
The X11 underlying system changed some years ago. Before that, KDE3
and all other DE of that time had accurate settings for
speed/acceleration. Now X11 always applies some kind of acceleration
depending on your input device. Play around with xinput/xset to get a
1:1 mapping for mousespeed to cursorspeed or touchpoint elongation to
cursurspeed. When that's done, the TDE settings work as they sould.
Ah, that's good to know, thanks, Nik!
Cheers,
Stefan
