LXDE (and maybe Openbox too) is *famous* for having a slow mouse. I'm
talking about on bare metal: Not sure about VM. All other things being
equal, if you switch to another window manager, the mouse is much
faster. By faster I mean 1cm of mouse travel on the mousepad produces
twice as much travel of the pointer on the screen as it did with LXDE.

The cure I've found is:

1) Use a mousepad.
2) Clean your mousepad frequently.
3) Use a Blue Trace mouse

The cure is ABSOLUTELY NOT accelleration: That leads to golf game
mousing.
