Bug#852649: live-build: Mouse speed on the default live distrubution can be too fast without an xorg.conf hack



Source: live-build
Severity: normal

Hi. I believe there is serious usability issue with the default live distribution. The one I use is the regular GNOME jessie live. The slowest speed possible on a high-DPI mouse from the GUI configuration inside GNOME may be much faster than needed. The user has to actually edit the xorg.conf and restart the X server in order to get a slower slowest speed for the mouse pointer. I believe that should not be the default behavior at all. Other OSes start-off with a much slower mouse speed on high-DPI mouse. It can make the live distribution nearly unusable to several people.
