You can run mousehack to overcome this problem.

You can also grab the mouse pointer with F12 + g.  (Press that combination again to release the mouse pointer)

Cheers,
Rich

Hi Kevin

Quote
but what about double-clicking icons?

What CPU emulation settings are you using? This sort of thing usually happens if you have a JIT-enabled version of UAE and have the CPU speed set to adjustable. It screws the synchronization between the custom-chip emulation and the CPU emulation and the timers run amok. Hence,  your double-click is now much too slow (relatively to UAE time) to be recognized as a double-click - if you see what I mean.

If you're running a desktop, then you'll want CPU speed set to maximum (used to be called 'Optimize for host speed' or something similar in the GTK+ GUI).

Cheers,
Rich

Hi Kevin

Perhaps you can mail me about this? I need more information about your set-up. What processor, what version of Linux, and throw in a copy of your config file . . .
