Problem Description:
USB mouse speed is very match. Setting options to xorg.conf:

Option "Resolution" "800"
Option "SampleRate" "30"

not change situation. I try change values - no result. 
I try:
# xset m 1/5 1 
And also no many result. Only xset m 1/5000 1 change speed in 1/3, but no more. Probaly this problem in driver.
Hardware work properly - in windows pointer move fluently and no big speed.

Does this happen also in console, or is this purely X issue?

Comment 2 Sergey Semenov 2008-06-08 18:08:45 UTC

In console USB mouse also have more speed, then PS/2 mouse.
I am update xorg 1.3.0. Now xset begin work properly and I change speed to needed me. But USB mouse, which connect parallel PS/2 mouse, stay have more speed, than PS/2 mouse.

Comment 3 Dmitry Torokhov 2008-06-17 13:14:23 UTC

Hmm, according to the manufacturer the mouse resolution is 800 DPI while for PS/2 we normally use 200 DPI... That woudl explain the difference in mouse speeds.
