Hi guys.

Edit: update in a comment below. Tldr; I’m a noob

I’ve been struggling to find a solution to disabling mouse acceleration on Wayland. I’m on Nobara 38 and I have tried both the GNOME and KDE flavors, but both have drawbacks and it makes playing FPS games frustrating.

I’m on AMD, running a 7900XTX.

On GNOME the mouse does not seem to have acceleration, but the mouse feels slow and sluggish when moving it. Plus GNOME Wayland does not support tearing which makes in an automatic fail for CS2.

On KDE, the mouse has acceleration/deceleration even when the system setting is set to ‘flat’. I have also tried moving cursor speed slider, but it did not fix the issue.

Anyone else having these issues?

    If you have mouse acceleration on KDE when selecting the “flat” profile then

    • you’re accidentally running Plasma as an X11 session and suffer from a libinput issue, or
    • your mouse has an internal acceleration profile that can be disabled using the manufacturer’s Windows-only software (or some enthusiast project on Github), Logitech mice often have this feature
