From googling apparently there is a option in gnome tweaks (Yes it should work on Budgie too). I can't remember if tweaks is installed by default or not if you can't find tweaks in the system menu install it via:
sudo eopkg it gnome-tweaks

Then apparently you can set mouse acceleration to flat as described here:

    Harvey Installed through terminal, does not launch..?

    Despite being called gnome tweaks, its tweaks in the system menu. If it doesn't appear try rebooting.

      Harvey What is the "system menu?" Thank you for all the help by the way 🙂

        [deleted]
        Same as the start menu. An you're welcome.

        Also if you wish to change the DPI on your mouse and you have a supported mouse. I for example use a Logitech G502 Hero. You can install piper to help configure it.

          Harvey I have a Roccat Kone Aimo, no software supports it, except for the windows software (the dpi is stored in the mouse, however, and it is still much faster on linux)

          🤷‍♂️ I'm not exactly the sort of person that can tell the difference. DPI and the traditional speed slider / disable acceleration is enough for me. Not saying there isn't a solution but I can't think of anything else.

            Harvey Yeah, I totally understand that working for you, but for me, there are years of muscle memory based on my current setup, so changing something means years more of learning a different dpi. Thanks for all the help, and the reason I brought up the mouse acceleration thing was because I personally think it should be a setting for every desktop environment, rather than being enabled by default across the board. Thanks again!

            Harvey Gnome Tweaks isn't opening even after reboot?

              • [deleted]

              Nothing, shows up in start menu when searching 'tweaks' though

                [deleted]
                Thats... Odd. Even if it doesn't run properly it should provide some output.

                Search for broken packages and reinstall any that are broken:
                sudo eopkg check | grep Broken | awk '{print $4}' | xargs sudo eopkg it --reinstall

                If you're not copying and pasting the command note it is case sensitive.

                If you're worried about running weird commands its referenced in the official troubleshooting documents so you know its not suss. https://getsol.us/articles/troubleshooting/general-troubleshooting/en/

                EDIT The command will take some time, its not frozen.

                  Tried twice, copied and pasted both times..

                    [deleted]
                    Yeah that just means there were no broken packages.

                    Delete package cache:
                    sudo eopkg dc

                    Reinstall gnome-tweaks
                    sudo eopkg it --reinstall gnome-tweaks

                    Beyond that I have no idea, it launches for me fine.

                      Harvey Same issue, but if I type 'sudo gnome-tweaks' it works?

                      To disable mouse accel in budgie use Dconf editor
                      sudo eopkg it dconf-editor
                      Once you've got it installed, navigate to /org/gnome/desktop/peripherals/mouse/
                      In there you'll find and option accel-profile. Click on it, uncheck the default value button, underneath the custom value button will become available. Click on that and set it to flat.

                      Now just match your windows sens with your linux one. 😀

                        TeenCorn but like it's still a different sensitivity

                          [deleted] 🤔 I don't know what you mean by that. I'm assuming you switched to the flat profile. Even if you do that, you still have the adjust the mouse speed in the system settings and the DPI on your mouse. Mess with the combination of those things until you get the same feel as in Windows.

                            For DPI try Piper. It works for my Logitech mouse, not sure about yours.

                            Otherwise the GNOME-tweaks should work like others have said.
