Mouse speed too slow

Mouse sensitivity slider is maxed out under gnome shell with adaptive (or flat) profile selected. This however is still way too slow to comfortably navigate native 4K with a Logitech MX 510 (800cpi).



Setting a transformation matrix speeds it up enough but results in games becoming unplayable and a more or less stuttering/pixel-skipping pointer lacking precision.



From my understanding, libinput normalizes mouse speed so you can adjust it by simply modifying mouse resolution. This worked to some extent with the pointer getting more aggressive with lower mouse resolution settings. However, there seems to be some minimum limit, and pushing the cpi-value beyond that has no effect: setting the mouse to be 100cpi made it behave about the same as setting it to 10cpi.



How can I freely scale mouse sensitivity using libinput?
