Fedora :: Slowing Down My Mouse?
Mar 26, 2010
I have got my Fedora12 setup working just beautifully... except the mouse!
A few months ago I invested in a very nice, expensive high performance mouse with very high resolution tracking. In Fedora 12 it is just too fast for me though, and I'm already well on the way to Carpel tunnel syndrome..
I have turned the sensitivity and acceleration down as far as they go but it is still too fast. The old ways of adjusting xorg parameters are, I understand it, now null and void due to the hotplugging HAL framework.
How to turn the speed of the mouse down on Fedora if the control panel doesnt turn it down enough.

This little Atom-based unit works fine with Linux, but its fan is running at full-speed all the time.So I figured maybe lm_sensors could ajust its speed dynamically, but "sensors", "fancontrol", and "pwmconfig" all fail to work, even though the modules required for this motherboard are up and running:
Code: # dpkg -L lm-sensors
[...]
/usr/sbin/fancontrol
/usr/sbin/pwmconfig
[code]...

I have custom built Linux kernel (2.6.31) and also xorg. xorg is using xserver 1.7.3 . I have an application which simulates the mouse and sends mouse move events. When I switch the device on, the system boots and Xorg comes up, I can see X cursor on the system. When I start sending mouse move events from the application, the cursor do not move. If I attach mouse to the device and then move the mouse, from this point onwards the mouse events get detected from the simulation application. I have checked the dmesg log as follows
BEFORE MOUSE CONNECTED.
.....
kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds
EXT3 FS on hdb4, internal journal
EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with writeback data mode.

I just upgraded to FC14 (64) from FC13 (32) and the mouse middle button (simultaneous left+right button) paste function has stopped working. I tested it with 3 makes/models of different mice and trackballs. For some reason (left+right) mouse returns the same code as the single right-button ('xev' value = 3). This worked in all previous FC and RH distros I've used in the past. Did a default setting get zonked somewhere? System: Toshiba laptop w/ USB mouse.

Biggest one that make game unplayable is mouse. Mouse isn't moving smooth it jumps around. I cannot shoot anything. So i asked for help, and everybody just say install windows. And where is fun in that. If people when ever run into problem with some software on linux just install windows. Linux would never go forward. I m not some great gamer, but i would like to be able to play this game. Probably somebody run into same problem. I sow that people talk about something like dis on WOW and wine but simptoms doesn't seem same to me.

I'm running FC12 and GNOME.If I move the physical mouse about one inch, the mouse pointer moves across the entire screen.That's way too fast and way to sensitive.I prefer the mouse pointer to move far less distance on the screen when the physical mouse is moved.
From System->Preferences->Mouse, I set the various mouse Pointer Speed acceleration and Sensitivity to Slow, Fast, Low, High, and and I couldn't get it any better. At the least sensitive settings. if I move the physical mouse one inch, the mouse pointer moves across the entire screen.How can make the mouse pointer less sensitive to mouse movements?

As mentioned in another of my recent posts, I have set up a small network for my job, in which I am utilizing 4 Servers running Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope Gnome GUI and Ubuntu Server running underneath (yes I need a GUI for what I am doing). However, I am having a problem when bringing Ubuntu out of "locked" state, and any time that I am required to authenticate (i.e. sudo bash). After I type in my password, everything hangs for a good 3+ minutes.
To test this, I disconnected the Ubuntu Servers from the network, and I tried to authenticate again. With the server off the network, authentication did not hang, and the GUI came up in seconds. Also, I checked my syslog and memory utilization and both are well within acceptable range that they would not be causing sluggish performance.
With all of this said, I believe that there is some kind of resolution going on when trying to authenticate while the servers are connected to the network (i.e. Kind of like how doing a traceroute in a cmd prompt in Windows without the "-d" takes forever because of name resolution checking).I should also mention that my network DOES NOT have an internet connection by design.

I recently got karoo broadband installed, the speed is normally 8mbps but the longer I am connected to my router the slower it gets, I have to disconnect and reconnect to the router to get back to full speed, is this due to a bad wireless driver or do I need new drivers or a better router.

When I am running Ktorrent it takes about 30 seconds for a web page to open, in stead of 1 or 2 seconds. The download speed is very slow 200B/s and the status of most of the torrents is "Stalled". If have opened TCP and UDP ports 36477 4444 6881, 7881, 8881 and added them to the port forwarding list in my router. No difference.

about every second time when I start up my Ubuntu 10.4, my hard drive starts to work heavily. While it's doing so I see in the system monitor that the gnome-settings-daemon has the status 'uninterruptible'. After about 3 minutes the hard drive calms down and the status of gnome-settings-daemon switches to 'sleeping'. so from that I guess the heavy working of the hard drive is somehow related to that process. Sometimes gnome-settings-daemon seems to crash completely so that my theme is gone.
So is there a solution to that? because it's annoying that it slows down the system for about 3 minutes after start up. On the net I've found some old threads from 2004 and 2006 which describe crashing of gnome-settings-daemon. But there didn't seem to be a solution.

Is there a way to cache everything in squid except for the video files and mp3s?I had a problem before when I turned caching on and it made the performance very poor because it was trying to cache large video files.Right now, I have a problem on the server where even if iptraf lists ingoing+outgoing at 5000 kbits/sec viewing video works fine, but it takes a while for normal webpages to load and I can't figure out where the bottleneck is.

when calling 'top' dbus is having load of activity ('dbus-monitor --session') outputs also a lot of action (see attachement). this has effect that my machine is slowing down and normal work takes ages.I have no clue where the activity is coming from. I also had a look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...or/+bug/441828. But there are no unnormal devices plugged in... (just keyboard + cordless mouse).when starting the machine the cpu load is ~9%. After a while (after 1 day) it goes up to 70-80%. the started applications do not change during that time. so i guess somewhere there is a leak.

I'm moving to Vietnam soon and was wondering if anyone knows of the best native linux way to circumvent the internet censorship there without slowing it down too significantly. I used to use proxy servers to access Wikipedia in China, but they were slow and unreliable. Not to mention, it was a pain to enable/disable it.

I'm trying to dump a mysql database on a small web server without killing performance. I tried using the nice command to give the mysqldump and gzip a low priority, but gzip is still taking up 100% CPU. Pages on the web server are loading incredibly slow. Here's my command:
Code:
nice -n 19 mysqldump -u USER -pPASSWORD DATABASE | nice -n 19 gzip -9 > OUTFILE.sql.gz How do I get gzip to run without taking up 100% CPU? I've attached a screenshot of top about 8 seconds into the dump.

I have a tenda wireless adaptor running on 11.04 natty. The USB id is: 148F 3070
Using the already installed drivers rt2800usb it can connect to all 13 channels but is very flaky, transfers slowing and stopping regularly. The rt2870sta driver is a lot more stable, but it will only connect to channels 1-11, but I need to use channel 13 due to massive wifi congestion on other channels...
I've tried iwpriv but it says there are no ioctls for the device.
Is there any way to get the installed driver rt2870sta to scan and connect to channel 13?
I've also tried to install the latest drivers from the ralink website: rt2870sta says it can see all 14 channels, but fails to scan. I also tried rt3070 driver but I cannot insmod as there are errors...

I bought a new computer a few months ago. AMD Quad Core 3.0 GHz, 4 Gig Ram, 1 Gig Video card. All was working fine with Ubuntu 10.04. Then I installed a PCI Firewire card from my old computer because I needed to make some videos from my DV video camera. My computer worked and everything seemed to be fine. The firewire card worked, and I could do everything as per usual. Except for watching HD Videos. After capturing my video from my cam corder I un-installed the PCI FireWire card, and I can now watch HD Video again. This is the error I got when watching a HD Video with the PCI Firewire card installed. I launched vlc from a terminal.
[Code]...
My question is - how would a person know that the PCI card was slowing down the computer if they hadn't experienced the computer before installing the PCI card. One of the reasons I upgraded to a faster computer was to watch HD Video. Now I am wondering if it was the PCI card that was slowing down my old computer. Pentium-4 single core 2.8 GHz, 256 MB Grfx card. Is there diagnostic software for Ubuntu/Linux for this type of thing.

It's two days now I'm in deep troubles after my last "yum update". The system boots as usual, the graphical login pops up the normal way but no input is handled by either the internal keyboard (the system is a laptop), the mouse pad, the external USB mouse and keyboard.
The hardware itself seems to be working as I can pop up the BIOS menus and even edit the GRUB booting line. But, after GRUB there's no possible input. I've tried to boot the system with the Fedora 11 DVD, rescue menu and then chroot. This in order to run a "yum update" in the hope that the problem was in some broken update. No chance: there's no update.
My questions are:
1. Is there a way to boot Fedora withou any graphical interface from GRUB (or anything else to skip the KDE)?
2. Is there a way to have the (cabled) network activated at boot *before* the graphical login?
3. What the he** is happening to my otherwise pefectly working laptop?

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my HP Pavilion a320n computer with a ps2 mouse and the mouse pointer points with the bottom of the mouse and not the upper tip of the point. It does the same thing with Ubuntu 10.04.1. In Windows 7 and XP the mouse is normal. I don't know how I could adjust it or is this just a bug in the OS?

I'm happily running Fedora 13 as a guest OS in VMWare 3.0.1, except that it has one little issue.Sometimes the mouse would get terribly confused. It generally happens when I hit the mouse scroll wheel or when I move a window around very quickly. After that the left mouse button would stop working...
Anyway I found an easy workaround which I thought I'd share.Just hit 'enter unity' on the VMWare player menu. Then you can immediately exit unity again. This somehow resets the mouse into its normal state...

CNEE(1) General Commands Manual says this. RECORD OPTIONS --first-last Print only first and last of multiple successive MotionEvent. So I try this. my test window is Calculator 3.14.1 cnee --record --mouse --keyboard --time 5 --store-mouse-position --first-last --stop-key h -o xnee.xns -e xnee_record.log -v;The result is, xnee.xns lists every mouse movement.But I only need to record the mouse location when there is a mouse button event. it seems --first-last does not work. How can I make it work?I use

slows it down the way I need. But now, each boot I need to run it again. Is there a place where I can put it so it runs every time X starts? Also, googling a bit I found that udev rules can be used instead, but I don't know how to write it as a rule.

I've upgraded to FC11 and I've noticed that the extra buttons on my Logitech mx1000 mouse are now detected. However most of them aren't mapped to anything. In the past one would start changing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. Lately, there seems to be movement away from changing this file and I notice that the default xorg.conf has no entry in it for the mouse. Is there a new preferred way to map mouse buttons? I'd like to make buttons 6 and 7 scroll horizontally and button 10 instruct compiz to show all windows.

I updated F11 this morning and when I rebooted X no longer sees my USB mouse. The system is a Dell Optiplex GX620 and it is a stanmdard scroll wheel Dell USB mouse. I do not have any of the bluez packages installed - I saw in another thread that removing/reverting them helped.
