[workaround] Jerky mouse on Linux

[broozar]

Wow, it is indeed my high DPI mouse. I use SteelSeries 300/Rival on all of my machines, so that is why my issues are consistent across all distros. If I plug in a 5€ travel mouse, I get smooth rotations. In all this time, I never suspected it could be the mouse hardware.

I have tried reducing the DPI of the SteelSeries mouse down to 800/1200, but the issue remains.

The workarounds in the settings menu don't solve the issue for me.

Short of buying another mouse, Is there any way I might solve this besides changing the DPI which did not work? Can I help you test other workarounds?
