Hi,

You can de-linearize a pot by connecting a fixed resistor (or resistor
network) from the wiper to one (or both in the case of a network) end(s)
of the pot.  You won't get a (truly) logarithmic curve but, depending on
your requirements, you may get an acceptable curve.  Hobby RC
transmitters achieve their non-linear "exponential" response in this
way.

What are you using it for?

Regards,
Dave
