+This driver does not know about the display pixel density and submits motion
+events assuming an approximate display density of 96dpi. On high-dpi
+screens this results in a slower physical motion of the cursor (a one-pixel
+movement is a smaller physical movement on the screen). This can make

+This is a
+.B temporary
+solution. The factor should be set to the approximate ratio of the host display
+compared to the default 96dpi. For example, a display with 200dpi should set
+a factor of 2.0.
+.PP
+If set, x/y motion will be unconditionally multiplied by this factor,
+resulting in faster movement of the cursor. Note that this may make some
+pixels unadressable and should be used with caution.

+.B This option is a temporary solution.
+It may be removed in any future update of this driver.
