I'm running a HD install of DSL 0.8.0 on an old Pentium 1 with a two-button Logitech PS/2 mouse. Is there any way I can change the mouse double-click speed? I found xset to change pointer speed (needed to up it a tad), but navigating directories in emelfm is frustrating cuz I don't double-click fast enough. Guess my trigger finger is getting old.

I tried searching google, but all their solutions refer to either kde or gnome.

Maybe you have found it, if not:
In the ~/.fluxbox/init file there is line
session.doubleClickInterval: 250
edit it and enoy

That did the trick. Thanks for the info.

The main problem I had was with navigating through emelfm while accessing the DSL box over vnc. Apparently, in emelfm you must first highlight a directory, *then* double-click it to go there. I originally thought I was dealing with a vnc speed issue.

Now if I can get the center mouse button click (simultaneous left- and right-click, in my case) to work over vnc...
