I played around with it myself, and I have some bad news and some good news.
The range of values for pc_PointerTicks is 4 for slowest, 1 for fastests.
I didn't try to make it 0, it would probably hang or bomb or something.
So, my previous posting is of no use. To make ammends, I have modified my
screen blanker program to instead install a handler in the input.device
chain that just looks for mouse move events, and when one comes along, it
will double the ie_x and ie_y events, speeding the mouse up by a factor of
two.
Here is the code:
(It is impossible to disable this without re-booting the machine, but the
handler itself is under 50 bytes.)
