Synchronization with TV cursor when mouse acceleration != 1

[rotdrop]

Hi there,

many thanks for your nice app!

I had some discussion on the server project (Wouterdek/magic4pc#25) about the position of the TV cursor (which seemingly cannot be turned off) and the mouse pointer. It turned out that I had mouse acceleration at factor 2 which made the two pointers moving at different speed.

I found this a bit unexpected as your code emulates a touchpad and sets absolute positions. But I assume that this has something to do how the mouse acceleration is implemented in the Desktop / X11 window system.

So this is rather not a bug. Maybe this could be documented in the README.md.

Interesting, that's precisely why I chose to go with the touchpad interface to avoid that issue 😅. Thanks for reporting. It's been a while since I touched this so don't have enough context to document it right now, but I'll try to look at it soon (and if something can be done about it).
