I know.  Somewhere along the line I guessed 15 worked, and got lazy.

Which brings me to another comment in that Debian bug:

> Setting 291 and 294 looked enticing but I could not figure out the syntax xinput wanted.

Translation: the xinput doco sucks in some places.  I remembered when I tried
to do this today:

  $ xinput set-prop "DLL06E4:01 06CB:7A13 Touchpad" "libinput Accel Speed" 1.5
  X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for
operation)

Integer value? It's a float.

> you'll have to wait for wayland to have this supported, sorry, should've made this clear earlier.

It isn't a problem for me - I just wanted to ensure you were aware of it.

Currently I have a 300 DPI laptop display and a 100 DPI desktop monitor.  With
X only one can be made to look sane.  I've read Wayland will fix that too. 
Here's hoping.

In the mean time though, Intel fixing their Skylake GPU driver so the monitor
displays something every time rather than 1 time in 10 or so would be a great
improvement.
