Just thought that I'd throw my first two cents in since joining the list...I've had similar problems w/ gnome and found a solution using the 'xset' program. I know that you can use it to set many of the option in the x server, but I've only used it to adjust the mouse settings. If you load up an xterm and type: $xset m 5 7 the "m" is for mouse settings and I believe that the two following numbers are for the threshold and acceleration. I know that in gnome, you can set these via the gnome control panel, but I've found that using xset give you a bit more control. You can just play with the two numbers and see if you can find a setting that works well for you. Once you find a setting, just have write a little script that runs this command upon gnome startup. Then you won't have to do it manually every time you start up X. -Erik Anderson -----Original Message----- From: tclug-list-admin at mn-linux.org [mailto:tclug-list-admin at mn-linux.org]On Behalf Of Jeff Schmidt Sent: Friday, February 22, 2002 10:22 AM To: [ TCLUG ] Subject: [TCLUG] mouse movement having just recently switched from Windows, I'm still not liking the way the mouse moves in Gnome. I've tried adjusting all of the settings (all 2 of them), but I can't seem to get the movement to the way I like it, which is sad to say, Windows-like. Is there anywhere I can go to find more settings that aren't included in the Control Center? I'm using E if that makes a difference. I think I just really don't like the threshold settings. It seems too erratic for me. Even with it set as high as it goes. thanks in advance Jeff
