For some reason, mouse sensitivity changed down for my mouse on my Fedora 16 without my intervention. Just like that.

I know there are two options to set mouse sensitivity. In the Xorg.conf (I dont have any) and using xinput --set-prop.

I would like to set it up using xinput command to reset it to the default setting. There are many numbers and I dont want to spent time trying all combinations. So - what are the "Fedora default" numbers speaking of sensitivity and acceleration?

The default settings are -

Device Accel Profile (266): 0
Device Accel Constant Deceleration (267):   1.000000
Device Accel Adaptive Deceleration (268):   1.000000
Device Accel Velocity Scaling (269):    10.000000

The settings for touchpad will vary, this is for a USB Mouse. This above 4 settings mainly determine the sensitivity.

Note : Device Accel Velocity Scaling : 10 for devices reporting at approximately 100hz.

For more details please check the Xorg wiki

Thanks, fyi to set the DEFAULT mouse settings back just do this (replacing 11 with id or name of your mouse - xinput --list --short to get it)

xinput --set-prop 11 "Device Accel Profile" 0
xinput --set-prop 11 "Device Accel Constant Deceleration" 1.0
xinput --set-prop 11 "Device Accel Adaptive Deceleration" 1.0
xinput --set-prop 11 "Device Accel Velocity Scaling" 10
