I am an old fart that has a tough time keeping an eye on my MOUSE pointer. In Windows you can go to control panel, click on "mouse" and change the pointer style, how fast my cursor goes across the screen, etc. I found only a symbolic mouse app in Ubuntu that that does nothing that I can tell. Logitech does not support Linux, so I don't know where to go for these controls. Is there anything out there?

Do you only want to change the pointer size, or do you need speed settings too? – TheWanderer Aug 19 '16 at 20:30

1Excellent question. My father asked exactly the same when he migrated to Ubuntu. I'm also interested in an answer. – jawtheshark Aug 19 '16 at 20:31

1@jawtheshark and OP ^ that will change the pointer size, but not the speed. – TheWanderer Aug 19 '16 at 20:31

Install the Unity Tweak Tool, select the cursor tab, select use large cursors at the bottom of the window.
Unity Tweak Tool can probably be found in Synaptic, the Ubuntu Software Center, or at https://launchpad.net/unity-tweak-tool.
Also, Solaar supports Logitech mice on Ubuntu. Find it at http://pwr.github.io/Solaar/
