Can you type something in the number field next to the slider?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Yes, but it stops at 1.

Set the physical mouse to a higher dpi? Probably not what you’re asking though.

It seems to be a touchpad and not a separate mouse.

Ah. Yeah I only glanced at the screen shot. Never mind! Unless there is a bios setting…. I don’t use track pads often though.

If the maximum speed pointer is too slow (which can also be subjective) for your touchpad, this might a be driver bug or some missing calibration for your variant of hardware. Reach out to libinput devs, they track issues here: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libinput/libinput/-/issues

For me putting the slider to 1.0 makes the touchpad so fast it’s barely usable
