Hi Israel,
1) Apps -> System -> Mouse/Touchpad Settings does nothing.2) Looking at the Apps -> System menu, the menu items list always seems to be randomly ordered; can you consider making it ordered alphabetically by name for instance?  I swear every time I install , Sakura ends up in a different place in the list from that menu.  Just a thought.
Cheers,JackT.
