I already tried to change the mouse configuration from the preferences 
menu. I also tried to set the value manually with gconf. But the 
sensitivity can't be set to 0, and I even tried negative values, they 
didn't work either.

What I haven't tried, though, is to change the configuration file 
directly because I don't know what file to look for.

Anyways, I hope someone can help me!
