You can try reducing it by adding this line to your /boot/cmdline.txt file:

Code: Select all

usbhid.mousepoll=8

Reboot to apply the value.
You can try the following values: 8 (125Hz), 4 (250Hz) and 2 (500Hz).

(and don't use the --status and --curses arguments, as the generate network packets that consume USB bandwidth).

My mouse is jerky. It just moves a bit and stops. Moves another bit and stops. Works fine when start X's.

Tried changing polling rate but my mousepoll instead of 1,2,4,8,10 is:
4294967295

Any ideas?

Mouse or keyboard are not laggy. It's just movement that stops like it wouldn't keep info that mouse is still moving. Pressing keyboard buttons longer are working fine.
Running gimx via gimx-launcher as Raspberry PI 2B has 900mhaz qud core processor and 1GB RAM. Raspbian is running from external HDD
I'm using modified BF4 cfg that is working well with PS4 and XBone via Ubuntu on my laptop.

Any suggestions?

Dont use an external HDD. It consumes USB bandwidth.

@Matlo, I understand it's the first thought but maybe you have any other suggestions?
That's cheap excuse and not helpful at all.

Meantime I've sorted it out myself.

As root (obviously) add this line:
usbhid.mousepoll=2
to:
/boot/cmdline.txt
with your favourite text editor.

In the same fu**ing line as the rest of commands separated by space.
My mistake was adding mousepoll parameter at the separate line. Silly me
*badum tssss*

Check your mouse frequency. In my case it's 500Hz.
Hz/ms
1000=1
500=2
250=4
125=8
100=10


Now my wireless A4Tech Bloody R8A works perfectly fine with 500hz pooling rate. ...and you know what? Even with cheap Esperanza (not powered) USB hub 2.0
With triggerhappy started and Via X'es.

It turns out Raspberry PI 2B is small yet powerful device

Kind Regards,

This is not really kind.
Do you have any idea how USB works at the low level ?
