# MX Ergo settings for Linux
This repository contains scripts for making good use of a MX Ergo mouse from Logitech in Linux.
## Packages needed
- xinput
- xinput is a utility to list available input devices, query information about a device and change input device settings.
## Speed and Acceleration
Using xinput I set my acceleration to 0.85 so I don't have to move my finger a lot and reach the edges of my monitor.
First thing to do is run xinput to get the devices on your system, for example I get a list but all I care about is the MX Ergo
```bash
xinput --list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ ************************** id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech MX Ergo id=9 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ************************** id=13 [slave pointer (2)]
```
So from this, I know I need to modify device with id 9. Use next command to list MX Ergo all properties.
```bash
xinput --list-props 9
Device 'Logitech MX Ergo':
Device Enabled (156): 1
Coordinate Transformation Matrix (158): 1.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 1.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 1.000000
libinput Accel Speed (303): 0.850000
```
> For didactic reasons, I ended up removing all other options from the output.
