Mouse Sensitivity

[de1erious]

I use a Razer Deathadder gaming mouse and cannot decrese the sensitivity and acceleration as I did in Backtrack 5, and as I do in Ubuntu.
I used to use this script at startup:

xinput --set-prop "Razer Razer DeathAdder" "Device Accel Constant Deceleration"$
echo "Razer DeathAdder Deceleration set to 3."

xinput --set-prop "Razer Razer DeathAdder" "Device Accel Velocity Scaling" 1
echo "Razer DeathAdder Velocity Scaling set to 1."

But now xinput is no longer a command. I imagine because it's only a ubuntu command..?

I'm curious if anyone has an alternative for me. The system mouse settings are at their lowest and it's still nearly impossible to navigate when my mouse flys across the map like superman.

Thanks in advance,

De1.

Hey dude, since Kali is based on Debian you'll need to use the "xset" command. Here's what I've done:

xset m 1/3 1

That'll reduce the mouse sensitivity to a usable level. I haven't figured out how to make it slower than that.

If using Gnome, there is a mouse settings tab.

Unfortunately lowering the sensitivity in the mouse settings tab doesn't do anything. I haven't had a chance to test with a different mouse, but I'm using a Razer brand mouse as well. May just be isolated to that brand. So far the only way I can effectively reduce my mouse sensitivity is via the "xset" command.

Thanks a lot I'll give it a try. I thought there would be something similar on Debian.. especially since they're so related.

I guess you didn't read my post. They are already at their lowest.
