How to disable mouse acceleration on ubuntu 18.04
My mouse has mouse acceleration and is too fast in ubuntu 18.04.
Creating 90-mouse.conf in xorg.conf.d doesn't work.
And when gnome will switch from xorg to wayland, these xorg.conf files wont work anymore.
Is there another way to disable mouse acceleration in ubuntu?
