consistent tracking
This tweak works great, however when the tracking is sped up past the ddefault maximum speed, I notice an inconsistency in its movement. The cursor seems to only move fast when you jerk your mouse around quickly, but when you move the mouse slowly, the tracking speed drops much lower than it should. In other words, you can move the mouse the same physical distance, but how far the cursor travels across the screen seems to depend on how fast you move your mouse, not how much. Is there any way to fix this?
Re: consistent tracking
No, because that's actually what you're changing. The "scaling" part should tip you off. ;)
Pretty much what this does is increase how far the mouse moves at a given speed (as a percentage), so if you're moving the mouse slow it's not going to go as far as when you move the mouse fast. IMO, this is exactly how it should work! I don't want the mouse to move an inch when I'm moving it slow - that's usually when I'm moving it to click on something very near where the cursor is already at. I have something to ask - does defaults read -globalDomain com.apple.mouse come up with something for you guys? I think I actually added this one in when I was initially trying to increase the speed with 10.0.0, but that was so long ago I can't remember exactly. :D For me, it returns 5.2 (which is what my other one is set to), but it's a string and not a float, which is why I'm pretty sure I added that one in myself. I'm only askin' cause I'll delete it out of my global domain if it's not needed.

Here's my output:

Re: consistent tracking
I have noticed that the mouse pointer spontaneously jumps away from buttons, text and such. I find this behavior really annoying.
