I cannot get `xset m` to work under Openwindows 2.0
The environment is Sparc 1+ SunOS 4.1.1
I tried all sorts of combinations:
xset m 100
xset m 100 1
I can check `xset -q` and actually see the right
information. But for some reason the acceleration
of the mouse does not change.
Has anyone ran into a similar problem???

xset m doesn't work in V2... use input_from_defaults(1) from SunView. (this is fixed in the latest (as of yet unreleased) version...)

I have a 386i running SunOS4.0.2 and Openwindows 2.0. I fumbled with
this one too until I found the buglist in $OPENWINHOME/share/buglist.xnews,
which has the following:
ALL OPEN BUGS (NOT YET FIXED)
=============================
Bug id Cat. Sub Cat. Synopsis
------ ---- -------- --------
1038911 x11news server Cannot set mouse acceleration
This bug has irritated me and infuriated the graphics layout people.
Anyone know if it is patchable.

I did get a response from Sun. This functionality will be available in Openwin 3.0, which I believe will be out in a Beta form in about a month. -Victoria -- ===== FOR SALOMON EYES ONLY ====== Victoria S.

Originally it took me a couple weeks to figure out why the mouse was so fast as to be unusable with xnews, but was fine with the mit server. ------------------------------------ Jason Scheck jasons@master.CNA.TEK.COM ------------------------------------
