I need to set some trackpoint settings automatically. I don't know the best file in which to place these commands, but I used .xsessionrc. The commands are properly executed (I can verify that by adding set -x in the script, I see the xset command being executed). The xinput command have their intended effect, but the xset command has no effect.Can anyone help me figure out how to run all these commands, including xset, automatically?Here are my commands:xinput set-prop Synaptics Inc. Composite TouchPad / TrackPoint (Stick) Device Accel Profile 7xinput set-prop Synaptics Inc. Composite TouchPad / TrackPoint (Stick) Device Accel Constant Deceleration 1.45xinput set-prop Synaptics Inc. Composite TouchPad / TrackPoint (Stick) Device Accel Adaptive Deceleration 40xinput set-prop Synaptics Inc. Composite TouchPad / TrackPoint (Stick) Device Accel Velocity Scaling 40xset m 40 80I can run the exact same xset command after I log in and it works as intended.I run KDE (Kubuntu 14.10). Its GUI configuration doesn't have a way to set the parameters I want to set.
xset not having any effect in my .xsessionrc file
x11;mouse;profile;session;xinit
The xset command is executed, but something in KDE overrides these settings afterwards.The easiest solution would be to find the place in KDE where you can set the mouse acceleration. There may not be one though.If you can't find a GUI way, you'll have to arrange for your xset command to run after KDE sets its own unmodifiable preferences. Add an autostart script.
