Mouse pointer acceleration
by Darrell Anderson 31 Jan '23

31 Jan '23

Hi All, Are there plans to update the control center mouse dialog to support different mice and libinput? The TDE dialog is designed for older and simpler (happier!) days. The developers of other DEs adapted to the transition to libinput with respective mouse dialogs that support different mice and flat/adaptive control options for acceleration. With TDE I cannot configure mouse pointer acceleration without diving into xorg.conf.d. In TDE the mouse pointer accelerates immediately. Often my aged hand-eye coordination gets frustrated when moving the mouse pointer. I have tried manually changing the kcminputrc file to less than 1.0 acceleration, but that does not slow the immediate acceleration. I'll settle for work-arounds if they exist. Thanks for your time!

PunisherHD aka François Andriot

Every email I try to send to the email address you use here bounces. What are your plans WRT repositories/home:/PunisherHD:/Trinity:/stable/15.5/ ? Trying to use repositories/home:/PunisherHD:/Trinity:/stable/15.3/ for 15.4 was troublesome, so I'm hoping not to need to do that with 15.5. I have 6 15.5s already, but that's because they're all using Plasma and/or KDE3. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

upgrade starting TDM though not already running
by Felix Miata 25 Dec '22

25 Dec '22

When my /proc/cmdline includes a 3, and/or when # systemctl get-default multi-user.target and TDM is not running, doing an apt-get upgrade that includes a newer tdm, starts tdm, wresting the console from whatever I am doing while the upgrade is in process. I don't want that to happen. It's very disturbing. Is there a way to configure it only to restart, but never start, as a result of an apt/apt-get/aptitude installation or upgrade process? I asked 5 weeks ago on users list and got no response. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.
