When I move my mouse slowly over the desktop the pointer jumps often a few pixels (one or two) in the opposite direction of which I move my mouse. Horribly when trying to set the cursor around some semicolons in eclipse. I guess this is the result of a wrong set resolution of it. I suppose this is because the mouse was set initially really fast and even if I do xset 1/2 3, the mouse is just to fast and unprecise for me.

It aready tried to configure the xorg.conf like this:

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier  "Configured Mouse"
    Driver      "mouse"
    Option      "Device"    "/dev/mouse"
    Option      "Protocol"  "Auto"
    Option      "Name" "Logitech G3"
    Option      "Resolution" "2000"
EndSection

But with no effect. Maybe because there is no /dev/mouse. This ist the content of dev. Maybe you can tell me which one is the mouse.
