Mouse lag

Post by kalel90 »

I'm getting very bad mouse lag when i try to zoom in or out on linux mint (based on ubuntu 8.04) but if i remove spring and use the mojo installer it works fine but i want to run it in a separate x server and i made the script following the directions in the thread here and while it does work i also get the mouse lag in it and thats using both methods of install.
Any idea on how to fix this?

Also to clarify its not just lag because my system sucks because i can play it fine without a seperate x server with no lag using the mojo installer.
Not to mention im running an nvidia 8800 gs.

Add this to your wrapper script:

Code: Select all

export SDL_MOUSE_RELATIVE=0
