The topic here shows how to successfully change the speed of the pointer. For example, in my case the solution has been xinput set-prop 13 276 0.7. However, the configuration is lost with the restart of the pc. How to make this change permanent?

The easiest way would be adding the command to Startup application, first we'll wrap the command with bash script.

touch speedmouse.sh

Then, append your command:

echo "xinput set-prop 13 276 0.7" >> speedmouse.sh

Press Alt + F2, type gnome-session-properties to launch startup application. Press Add to create new startup:

You should all set now.

  • The issue with this solution is that for me both the device number (of my mouse) and property number (of the sensitivity) seem to change intermittently. EDIT: Nevermind, I realized you can refer to both by name rather than number, so for me it's xinput set-prop "Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse" "Coordinate Transformation Matrix" ... – The111 Oct 04 '17 at 00:21
