Razer Diamondback Sensitivity

[momocore]

I've tried everything to reduce the sensitivity of my mouse, increasing the resolution to 1600 DPI in my Xorg.conf file, decreasing the acceleration in KControl, but regardless, it seems to take just a minute gesture and my cursor flies across the screen. I'm running 3.4e X86_64.

By chance, is there a way to set a decent acceleration curve, or am I limited to threshold and acceleration settings in Kcontrol?

Thank you in advance.

You could try to place another type of material beneath the mouse for the time being as some surfaces = fast movement and some = read 50% of surface texture = slower movement until you can get this fixed.

If you can not find a answer here try the gentoo.org forums / wiki as likely someone there has a fox for this already or google.com and search as most xorg parts for same vdeo card + mouse should have settings you can compare to yourcurrent install and then adjust if needed.

Hope this helps.

Well, it looks like my Xorg.conf file was referencing Mouse2 to SendCoreEvents. I commented out this line, and it seems to have helped. Also, I tried changing the drivers from "mouse" to "evdev" This caused X to crash, but I'll try with autodetection as well.

i had the same kind of issue with my razer copperhead...however, if you're dual booting (or have access to a windows computer) i found that this works...
in windows, install your razer software, play with your presets, get one preset that you can change your sensitivity on the fly (i had mine set for the left up/down buttons), it'll store it, however, SL will see it as its full sensitivity, all you'd have to do then is tweak your sensitivity down when you boot up...worked for me...kinda mickey mouse job of it, but it works

That's awesome news! However, the Diamondback does not have the onboard memory to store the presets

I may just have to upgrade my mouse

I'll tweak it a bit more with xset, but right now, everything is working a lot better. Thanks!
