Messed with this last night, and I have some of my trackball games working pretty good.

To change mouse polling, from a terminal: sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt ... then add usbhid.mousepoll={number in ms} ... to the end.
1000 hz = 1 ms
500 hz = 2 ms
250 hz = 4 ms
125 hz = 8 ms
100 hz = 10 ms

I went with a mousepoll number of 2 ms for my Happ trackball. The default is 8 ms, I believe. This value is going to be sensitive to the type of mouse/trackball you have. One caveat is the lower the mousepoll number, the more CPU cycles being used up by the mouse.

Then I went into Mame4all and changed to a good analog sensitivity for the individual games. For Major Havoc, about 60% (default 100%). For Marble Madness, I liked 40 instead of the default of 30. Your mileage will vary here as well.
