Disable mouse acceleration for only mouse

[Lord_Karango17]

I will need to use my laptop as a daily over the summer, and it will be used in the "untethered" and "workstation" use cases. The default windows mouse acceleration settings mess with this though. It is enabled system wide, rather than a per input basis. I would like to have it enabled on my touchpad, but not on the mouse when its connected, and the only way of doing that right now is manually enabling and disabling it every time I disconnect the mouse.

 

Is there a more seamless way of doing this? maybe some 3rd party application I didnt come across?

There dosent appear to be anything in the synaptic driver panel about mouse acceleration. Its a lot of stuff regarding scrolling and gestures.

just took a closer look at it. its probably a unique driver. the thinkpad touchpads are pretty advanced stuff. maybe you can find an option if you have like a higher end mouse that disables it automtically
