unrelated, but I really recommend using 'libinput record' these days since
it can be replayed (libinput replay) or analysed easier (it's YAML).
Also, it prints delta times into the recording so you can immediately check
those without having to parse them, e.g.:

  - evdev:
    - [  0, 375974,   2,   0,       5] # EV_REL / REL_X                     5
    - [  0, 375974,   2,   1,      -2] # EV_REL / REL_Y                    -2
    - [  0, 375974,   0,   0,       0] # ------------ SYN_REPORT (0) ---------- +8ms

Cheers,
