Hello, i made this note for myself and thought it would be useful to post it (as i couldn’t find these informations there) : To reduce the mouse/trackball/trackpad sensitivity into the Organelle OS, you can run these command lines : #1 type & enter : _su_ #2 type & enter the password : _music_ #3 type & enter : _mount / -o remount,rw_ #4 type & enter : _nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf_ #5 look for the pointer section « _InputClass_ » and add this line : _Option “AccelSpeed” “-1”_ #6 save and restart GUI to apply #7 reboot for safety, or type & enter : _mount / -o remount,ro_ the values goes from -1 to 1 (-1 is the slowest), it can have decimals like -0.5 so patching on the Organelle OS isn’t painful anymore… ✌ EDIT : here’s a picture for example ![14](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex035/uploads/critterandguitari/original/2X/8/8b7ad09f0bd12e262460820d1107ab77fdec3245.jpeg) ---
