Budgie desktop cursor movement (windows equivalent?)

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

Harvey Mouse acceleration is not the only problem (I believe I disabled it with x11? - I followed this tutorial: https://www.mouse-sensitivity.com/forum/topic/570-adjust-linux-mouse-speed-to-windows-mouse-speed/), mouse movement is much faster in budgie desktop (and most desktop environments I've used on linux) and setting it to "feel right" would not fix the issue, since muscle memory is involved.

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

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?

Run from the terminal and post output:
gnome-tweaks

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

Harvey
Tried twice, copied and pasted both times..

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.

TeenCorn As I said, I can't deal with "the same feel." years of gaming on pc means I have muscle memory to the exact precise sensitivity I've been using in games.

Snoober My mouse retains dpi settings, so that part shouldn't be an issue.
