My new mouse (a gembird 2 button, 1 wheel. It has a little round green plug which plugs into the mouse port on the back of my machine.) is too enthusiastic! It is set up to double-click to open programs from icons, but frequently it opens Konqueror from its side panel as two instances, instead of the required one.
When reading emails in KMail, it frequently jumps through one mail when I use the arrow button to move to the next unread message, decreases the email count by two, and marks the jumped-through email as being read ........ although I haven't read it!
And when spell-checking an email, its also jumping through two corrections and marking them both as corrected, even if the middle one is wrong!
I've also found that when moving between the desktops using the mouse-wheel, it frequently goes the wrong way before reversing direction and going to the right desktop!
/etc/X11/xorg.conf shows;- ======== Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes" EndSection ========
I've tried googling for an answer (using the search term 'mouse too fast on fedora core 3') but didn't find anything which seemed useful.
Can anyone help me to slow it down and get it working properly please?
Hopefully, thanks Sharon.

Hi Sharon,
Try the "Preferences -> Mouse" menu - it has settings to affect the double click speed and the motion of the mouse.
Cheers, Ben

Thanks Ben. I've been into gnome and done this, but does this =only= relate to gnome or will it also work on kde too (because my desktop of choice is kde and I'm kde-centric :) ?
Back in kde it seemed to work for a little while, but now I'm not too sure. It seems as if the same old problems are creeping back in again.
Sharon.

Please post your sendmail.mc

sorry, typo errors. I noticed the Bad IPLOCALPORT from my /var/log/messages and not from maillog though it containts [sendmail] string id somehow. my sendmail works properly though. selinux is disabled here.

It's probably nothing to do with your sendmail.mc; I think it may be SASL, so you'd only notice an issue if you were using SMTP AUTH.
One thing that may be worth trying is turning off IPv6 support.
Try adding:
alias net-pf-10 off alias ipv6 off
to /etc/modprobe.conf
This won't take effect until after a reboot.
P.S. Please do not top-post on this mailing list.
Paul.

Hi Sharon,
Try: Control Center --> Peripherals --> Mouse --> Advanced
There's a control for the double click interval there.
