If I play a game in CrossOver, does the game use the Mac OS X mouse drivers or the emulated Windows XP mouse drivers? The OS X mouse driver has annoying acceleration that's impossible to disable without using a 3rd party mouse driver. It would be great if games in CrossOver used the linear or 1:1 mouse movement (no acceleration) of Windows.
Since there is no Windows XP mouse driver in CrossOver we use the Mac driver's events. Some caveats may apply. Many games read relative mouse movements via DirectInput (dinput.dll) or RawInput (in user32.dll). I don't know if OSX reports accelerated relative movement.
I recommend to give those third party apps a try if you're unhappy with OSX' mouse acceleration handling.
