I tried to set MinSpeed, MaxSpeed, AccelFactor and synclient
showed the changed values, but nothing happens.
mithrandir:~# synclient | grep 'Speed\|Accel' | head -3
MinSpeed = 1
MaxSpeed = 2.5
AccelFactor = 0.015
mithrandir:~# synclient MinSpeed=0.3 MaxSpeed=0.75 AccelFactor=0.015
mithrandir:~# synclient | grep 'Speed\|Accel' | head -3
MinSpeed = 0.3
MaxSpeed = 0.75
AccelFactor = 0.015
mithrandir:~#
no change in mouse speed.
Ah, btw, it *is* functional, but only marginally, *very* slow.
When playing around wiht g-p-d I see crazy jumps of the values in
synclient, ore detailed:
- adjustment of MinSpeed in gpd works (shows in synclient)
- adjustment of MaxSpeed does *nothing*
- adjustmetn of AccelFactor in g-p-d changes the MaxSpeed, but not the accel factor!

ut it also says
[ 44.860] (EE) Query no Synaptics: 6003C8
[ 44.860] (--) AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint: no supported touchpad found
[ 44.860] (EE) AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint Unable to query/initialize Synaptics
hardware.
[ 44.912] (EE) PreInit failed for input device "AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint"
[ 44.912] (II) UnloadModule: "synaptics"
The last line makes me nervous?
Does that information help for now?
Best wishes
Norbert
