Atm to remove mouse acceleration from desktop, we have to use some bash scripts like this: http://www.techytalk.info/turn-mouse-acceleration-off-on-ubuntu-linux/
Which is not very convenient, especially for new Linux users. There are some custom solutions like: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Razer but this doesn't work for every Razer product (doesn't work for my Razer Abyssus) and it's still playing around with terminal.

We need native Linux drivers for Razer products with:

  • mouse acceleration control
  • onthefly sensitivity control
  • macros
  • user profiles
  • easy to use GUI
  • easy to use installer

Ubuntu 12.10 Gnome Remix

You have to tell Razer. Also, restricting the support to only Debian packages might not the best of ideas.

.deb was just an example, tho you are right, fixed.

Nothing extracted yet.
