Put those settings in falloutpref.ini instead. The regular fallout ini resets everytime you launch the game from steam. You can get around this by launching the game from the exe in the NV folder.

iSafeZoneXWide=15 to 5 or 10?
Right-click on fallout.ini then click properties and click Read-only and apply and close.

Also I don’t know if anyone’s said a fix for this, but my mouse will also go off the game onto my other monitor, like the game is windowed but I have it on full screen

There's a fix for that in lStewieAl's Tweaks - Prevent Inactive Windows Scrolling if I remember correctly.

If you're looking for random fixes to just about anything, chances are it's in Stewie's.

It is, so yeah if you're not doing mods, avoid. I don't think there's a fix for that particular issue that doesn't involve mods, unfortunately.

I'm going to be honest - part of it just could be due to alt tabbing. All Bethengine games have issues when alt-tabbing. You might be better off just running in windowed mode anyway if you have to tab out that frequently.

even when playing in windowed mode it still happens

Edit Fallout.ini so that
bBackground Mouse=0
becomes
bBackground Mouse=1
and save.
Now the mouse cursor in pipboy and menus have the same speed as what you use to control your character.
Obviously, disabling acceleration as hinted at earlier also helps.
This didn't annoy me when I played New Vegas in windows because it correctly used the same sensitivity as when I was on the desktop, but on Linux it has been a big pain in the arse.
