I know I hit send too soon too.

I looked back and at one time I thinking of trying out qemu and installed it.  
A "dnf install qemu" installed
43 packages, including SLOF and qemu-system-ppc as well as qemu-system-ppc-core.

Thank you sir. This must be the cause of my problem.

As it happens, I have another Logitech wireless mouse and when I
replace the M705 with an M510 everything works perfectly.

This resurrected an old question in my mind, and that's "Why doesn't
the Logitech USB receiver dongle for one mouse or keyboard+mouse
desktop set work with any other?"

As it turns out, there are two distinct generations of that dongle. The
first generation devices are pretty much locked to the mice or desktops
they came with. There are second generation devices that can be paired
with multiple mice and desktop sets:

https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Unifying-Receiver-Wireless-Keyboard/dp/B00LQ6TO0O

From what I've found so far, the pairing software is available only for
Windows. Oh well. I do keep a Windows box that I use only for TurboTax
and printing envelopes with Microsoft Word (LibreOffice Writer has
never quite mastered that little feat for me).

Commonly, that means one of two things:

1.  The switch is mechanically bouncing (though all switches bounce,
and most input circuits have debouncing circuits to ignore that).  As
things age, the switch may bounce worse than the circuits handle.  It's
possible there may be debouncing software tweaks, but you're trying to
work around a hardware fault of something that needs repairs or
replacing.  It's possible that squirting electrical contact cleaner
into the switch *may* help (squirt then exercise the switch).  Do not
use RP7 or WD40 style sprays, they're corrosive, and will appear to
work at first, but deteriorate into a vicious cycle of needing constant
attention.

2.  The soldering around the switch is cracking.  If you can open up
the mouse, you can resolder around the switch.  This is a common fault
for anything mechanical (switches, plugs and sockets) that are soldered
directly to a circuit board.  If this is the problem, and it's a
favourite mouse that you want to keep, then soldering-in tiny flyleads
from the switch pins to a less mechanically-stressed part of the
circuit board will make a long-term repair.

The double-click timeout in the mouse preferences is virtually the
opposite of what you want (how *long* between double clicks before it
stops considering them as double-clicks).  If you were to try and
adjust that beyond its normal range to handle your fault, you wouldn't
be able to double-click any more.

It's no real surprise (to me) that you might have to adjust a few
settings.  Clicking on a HTTP or HTTPS link would probably be best
handled by a web browser, but clicking on a FTP link by something else,
and on a HTML *file* might want browser &/or editor options.

The technique to manage all that might be messy for some systems.  A
simplistic approach might assign all of those to a web-browser.

that's done I'll try the ultimate admission of failure -- reboot :-)

Since you're using xfce, I don't know how to do it graphically.
Run "xdg-mime query default text/html" to see what the current
setting is. If that's not correct, then run:
xdg-mime default text/html google-chrome.desktop
Hopefully that will set it correctly.


This does indeed change the setting of xdg-mime query default text/html
(for which, thanks) but it does not effect a change to the browser

Ok, from the post linked by Patrick, try the following:
xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/http
xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/https

If those point to the wrong browser, then do:
xdg-mime default x-scheme-handler/http google-chrome.desktop

Mouse controls for Fedora

2020-03-08 Thread Robert G (Doc) Savage via users
I'm been using a Logitech M705 wireless mouse with my Fedora laptop for
a long time. Recently it seems to have developed an unwanted "double-
click" behavior when the left button is depressed. This is particularly
objectionable when I'm trying to select a single e-mail in Evolution,
or after selecting it, to delete it. If either action senses a double-
click, that e-mail will pop  up in its own window, or it and the next
message will be deleted.

Is this something that I can tune out with Preferences > Hardware >

There's a longish thread on a similar theme here:

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/MC3ABB6J6E2EJN5SJGWSHUW2NGZL5X37/#HBOKHN6FZZ45H7CVK6DJYW7XVDTSW4IZ

Basically, you may have to change not just text/html but also x-scheme-
handler and possibly other stuff (I can't be bothered reading through
it all again, even though I was the OP). This is as clear as mud and
the XDG docs don't go out of their way to make it understandable, but I
did get there in the end. I use KDE but presumably this would also work
for you.

This does indeed change the setting of xdg-mime query default text/html
(for which, thanks) but it does not effect a change to the browser
executed by the RMB click.

Alas, this does not resolve the problem.
