 Posted: Tue May 24, 2011 4:13 pm Post subject: How to change the mose refresh rate |
 |
|
| I play Counter Strike 1.6 V40 and still have some problem with configuration. Because I am new in this games. I saw every professional player configure their mouse refresh rate by a software. But how and where the software I found. Or anyhow I can change my mouse refresh rate. Please give some suggestion. My mouse is intelliMouse 3.0. |

If usbhid is compiled into the kernel, you want to add an option to your kernel command line in grub.conf:
usbhid.mousepoll=#
where # is the number of milliseconds to wait between each polling operation.
from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mouse_Polling_Rate
| Code: | By default, the USB polling rate is set at 125hz. The table below represents combinations of Hz values and their corresponding delay time:
Hz ms
1000 1
500 2
250 4
125 8
100 10 |
If you have usbhid compiled as a module, you'll have to edit /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf as shown on that page. (at least i'm 90% sure, I couldn't find the gentoo equivalent in a quick search but I think it works the same) |

Thank you for the post. Now I'm able to change my mouse refresh rate. It's very effective. But 1000 Hz will damage the mouse engine?? I am not sure about it. Please make me clear about it. Thanks |

| If your mouse doesn't support 1000hz, i believe the current hid module clocks it down to whatever the mouse supports. Wouldn't damage the mouse either way though, if it tried to poll at an unsupported rate the mouse simply wouldn't work. |
