XF86Config-4:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "imps/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Resolution" "500"
^^^^^^^^^^^^
EndSection
That should effect mouse speed/resolution.
Yeah, I know. X11 sucks. No useful "on-the-fly" device parameter
reconfiguration...
Needless to say, this is very annoying.
(e.g. virtual screen size can't be reconfigured either)
