Does anybody know how I would be able to adjust my mouse's DPI within Ubuntu? If it helps, I have the original Razer Deathadder. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

I think you need the driver/software for Razer installed to adjust DPI, which I figure isn't available for Linux/Ubuntu

Just gonna say this: #M40MasterRace

 

If your mouse has DPI buttons on it that already have presets set (like the M40), just use the buttons.

Have you tried this? You can also toy with the Mouse & Touchpad options in the system settings (not sure if they work globally e.g. in games too).
