Hi, Seems the last email didn't make it to the list from 18 Jan :( On oS 11.0 I have used the Configure Desktop panel under KDE4 to enter the advanced properties of the attached PS/2 mouse. Here I set the Pointer Acceleration from the default of 2.0x to 6.8x and OK it. Mouse pointer immediately speeds up and I can navigate with ease. On each occasion that I have restarted the box after that the mouse pointer acceleration reverts back to the default of 2.0x speed. The Defaults and Reset button on the KDE window accomplish the same thing ie they revert the values back to the default. I hsve used a friend and Google has not been able to find a solution. I also tried to go into the /etc/sysconfig files via YAST, l;ook for the mouse entry and see if there was an entry there I could change. Given this is a single user box and I normally log in as the same non-root user each time, I am wondering if there is not a file I can edit with KWrite that will stop the mouse pointer acceleration resetting to the default, or at least keep it at the level I set it at after a reboot? This is happening on two boxes I have installed oS on whre I use the same mouse(Microsoft PS/2 Optical Wheel mouse) Regards Hylton -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
