Mouse Scaling

Some earlier versions of Linux did not support adjustable mouse accelerations.
For installations that must support these earlier versions, you can choose among
three pre-configured mouse scaling options or set your own custom scaling. The
pre-configured settings are Default (1:1), High (2:1) or Low (1:2):

In a 1:1 scaling ratio, every mouse movement on the desktop window sends
an equivalent mouse movement to the target device.

In a 2:1 scaling ratio, the same mouse movement sends a 2X mouse
