Sensitivity ratio in Linux

Recently I’ve created a Linux (Mint) partition alongside Windows, however I’ve come across a weird problem where sensitivity scales differently between L4D2 and TF2, an issue I’ve never encountered before.

The sensitivity in TF2 is much faster than L4D2, even when it is decreased more than half in the in-game settings. Also, I’ve made sure mouse accel is disabled and raw input is enabled. Both games have the same mouse settings.

Also note that while setting your sensitivity to half of what it usually is works ok (I just turn my dpi down to half), you still need to deal with turning off mouse accel. I recommend reading https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mouse_acceleration

Even if you don't use Arch (I use Ubuntu), the Arch wiki can be very helpful on learning how to tweak things about your Linux build.

Thank you guys, the sensitivity problem has been fixed.

However, I stumbled across another problem that I cannot seen to fix.. and it is pissing me off to say the least.

Because I am using the Linux partition, I must used the NVIDIA X Sever Settings in order to configure graphical settings. But unfortunately, when I reboot my system all the settings have been reverted (digital vibrance, resolution, refresh rate, etc).
I "Saved to the X Configuration File", but the settings still changed upon reboot.
Also, I must run two commands in order to get an extra thermal entry in order to configure the GPU fan speed. Without this, the fans on my GPU do not spin and the risk of overheating is present. Is there any way to save this as well?
