Hello, I am using Garuda Linux KDE Dr460nized (KDE Plasma 6 on Wayland).
I ran into a problem that I don’t know how to adjust the acceleration of the mouse.
I use the Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro mouse with the Razer HyperPolling Wireless Dongle adapter. The RazerGenie program sees the adapter, at least I can adjust the DPI through it.
Since I sometimes use Windows, I also have a desire to configure the mouse the same way in both places. Currently I’m facing a problem that in the KDE (System Options - Mouse) I can change two parameters: cursor speed (changes from -1 to 1) and cursor acceleration (i can choose either “not use” or “normal”). The same parameters are saved in the file
~/.config/kcminputrc
What am I missing? For the same DPI that I use in Windows, with the minimum mouse sensitivity setting of -1, the pointer moves too quickly. I have to change the mouse DPI every time i boot Linux after Windows. It would be great to know some way to slow down the cursor speed further.
But the main problem is that the acceleration is too weak, I would like to be able to somehow adjust it to increase it.
Ideally, I would like this setting to be available only for this mouse.
What have I tried.
I don’t understand what the mouse works through now, I thought it was using libinput.
I tried setting variables
When I installed them in udevadm info /dev/input/event9
it is clear that they are there. When executing the command sudo libinput debug-gui --device=/dev/input/event9 &
there is an effect, in the test window the acceleration changes. But in KDE Plasma itself this has no effect.
I tried installing the custom LEETMOUSE driver from
There is an effect on my second mouse, but it does not work at all with the Razer HyperPolling Wireless Dongle.
Is there any way to more deeply customize cursor speed and mouse acceleration in KDE Plasma 6 on Wayland?
Isn’t piper an application for setting up the mouse itself as a device? Thoseб in my case, why do I need a piper if a similar RazerGenie utility works?
My problem is not in setting up the mouse, but in setting the speed and sensitivity of the mouse in KDE Plasma.
Yes, as I wrote, I can change the sensitivity of the Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro mouse through the RazerGenie application. The problem is that this does not change the acceleration, so the experience of using a mouse in Windows and Linux is still very different.
And switching DPI every time is simply inconvenient.
Thank you, I tried it (and described what I tried in the first message).
When adjusting through System Settings, i cannot adjust the cursor acceleration parameter, only its sensitivity. Acceleration can only be turned on or off.
I need to make the acceleration more, the standard value is too small.
And I would like to slow down the cursor speed more than what KDE gives, I don’t have enough range of adjustments (i can change the value in the range from -1 to 1, with the same DPI of the mouse that is installed in my Windows the cursor in Linux moves too fast).
Its the stuff from Wayland it handle it others not like Xorg or each DE. Its like my Gaming keyboard it work on Xorg to put the light on with xset led 3 but under Wayland didint work.
Thanks for the links. Yes, I saw them and they didn’t help me.
If we talk about the first link, as I wrote in the first message, I tried to configure mouse acceleration via libinput, in the testing application the settings change, in KDE they do not. The rest is written there either about Xorg or about Gnome.
According to the second link, they configure everything in Xorg via xinput or again write about libinput.
The third link is about libinput.
