Created attachment 810461 [details] Screenshot showing Mouse & Touchpad settings with pointer speed missing Description of problem: After upgrading from Fedora 18 to Fedora 19 (via fedup) I discovered that I was no longer able to adjust the pointer speed for my mouse. When I opened Settings > Mouse & Touchpad I discovered that where there should be a pointer speed slider there was none (see attached screenshot) and, worse, the act of merely opening the Mouse & Touchpad settings caused my pointer speed to change from the previous sensible value to an extremely high value that was almost completely unusable. Using dconf-editor I found under org > gnome > settings-daemon > mouse that the motion-acceleration and motion-threshold parameters had become 10.0 and 1 respectively. Because of the missing slider in Settings > Mouse & Touchpad using dconf-editor was the only way I could return the pointer speed to a sensible value (a motion-acceleration of around 5.0 in my case). My mouse is part of a Logitech MK320 Wireless Desktop (keyboard + mouse) and I did not have the problem before the upgrade from F18 to F19 so this seems to be a regression between GNOME 3.6 and 3.8. Web searching for reports of similar problems resulted in the discovery of a Logitech EX110 Wireless Desktop user reporting the same missing slider so this bug may effect a range of Logitech products, and possible others. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.8.5 How reproducible: Always for Logitech MK320 or EX110 Wireless Desktops, possibly others. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect a Logitech wireless mouse 2. Open Settings > Mouse & Touchpad 3. Try to adjust the pointer speed for the attached mouse Actual results: There is no pointer speed slider. Expected results: There is a pointer speed slider and adjusting it will correctly adjust the sensitivity of the attached mouse.

This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
