Description Vincent Grande 2018-05-12 00:39:36 UTC
It seems the only way to currently disable mouse acceleration under Wayland, is with sway and gnome. Is it possible for Weston to incorporate mouse acceleration settings so we can disable mouse acceleration under Weston?

Hi,

adding input settings in general is a reasonable request, and I've actually been thinking about it, though never having the time. Adding weston.ini options to most libinput knobs for the various input devices would be nice. A small hurdle is to come up with a good way to match input devices in weston.ini for setting the knobs. I think this would be a nice junior task.

Libweston should allow this already I think, it's only the Weston frontend that's missing the bits. So any libweston-based compositor should be ok for implementing the settings themselves.

Anything beyond weston.ini settings, e.g. a GUI, would be out of scope for Weston and better left for other libweston-based compositors.
