First of all. Knoppix rocks. Impressed that you can do all of this with less than 1 GB of data.

Second, I am new to Linux. Windows oriented (Vista to be exact). Vista broke and I have to access my drive through Knoppix, which sits on a bootable USB Cruzer 1GB.

Here's my issue:
Mouse moves in Knoppix sometimes will open files. But I cannot click then drag scrollbars to move pages down like Windows. I keep opening files I dont want to. I cant get used to the "hover-open" that im sure some of you probably like.

Ultimately, Ide like to replicate windows mouse settings .. Double-click to open files or move scroll bars.

I'm using synaptics touch pad on a Dell laptop (inspiron 1505 if that matters)

Is there anywhere I can change mouse settings like in Windows Control panel?

Thanks!
