Cant control mouse speed

I got a nice wireless mouse, and it worked with no issues. but I cannot get the speed low enough to be useful, it flies accross the screen with a slight touch. I cant get linpus' mouse control to work, what can I do?
Thanks

 

there's a way of setting the mouse speed by using the command xset and the m option, in the following syntax

"xset m acceleration threshold" :

open a terminal and type

Code:

xset m 5 1

that will only last for the duration of the session though (i.e. won't be there after reboot)
you could normally add it to your ~/.xinitrc so it automatically loads whenever X starts, but I have no idea where that is in Linpus.
