Question about the future of Xorg

Here is my output for comparison:

The only difference I see is that you got a different acceleration profile 
with a negative -0.4, while mine is +0.4.

What do you get for feedback parameters? Mine are:

volodya at iridium:~$ xinput --get-feedbacks 11
1 feedback class
PtrFeedbackClass id=0
         accelNum is 2
         accelDenom is 1
         threshold is 4

(11 is the id of my trackball).
