The mouse speed on my computer is too fast. I am running Ubuntu 16.04.

I followed the instructions here: Mouse speed too fast

And it worked, except every time I restart my computer I now need to re run that command. If it helps I am dual booting with windows 10 which means I restart my computer quite frequently. Where can I set the default value for the xinput prop so I get the settings I want on startup?

  • @Toonis - This morning I noticed my mouse sensitivity was way too high although it had been fine some time earlier - not sure of the reason but I installed a lot of software yesterday. Of course the first thing I tried was adjusting the mouse via the settings menu but it had absolutely no effect. Aug 14, 2017 at 20:17

You can put that command mentioned here Mouse speed too fast at the end of ~/.profile will run the command automatically when you login into your system.

Run sudo nano ~/.profile to be able to edit it. Add the command at the end, save the file and exit. It should work correctly.
