I recently switched from a wireless USB mouse to a wired USB mouse.
I cannot reliably right click links in Firefox because the click interval on the mouse isn't set up right.
How does one modify the mouse click parameters in Fedora and/or Plasma ? I've looked in System->Settings but can't find anything for click intervals.

man xinput ? BR, Bob
Thanks for the direction. However, I don't see anything to change click timing or turn debouncing on or off.

xinput --set-ptr-feedback $XID 5 4 1 # sensitivity
--set-ptr-feedback device threshold num denom Change the pointer acceleration (or feedback) parameters of device. The xset(1) man page has more details. For X.Org Server 1.7 and above, there are additional device properties pertaining to pointer acceleration. These do not replace, but complement the pointer feedback setting.
If i understand you problem properly, will this help you?
BR, Bob

Old mouse or New mouse?
Does the left-click have the same issue as the right-click?

I've yet to see that kind of thing, are you sure the mouse is okay?
I've had double-clicking problems with dicky mouse switches. And although you can make adjustments for that, it's skirting around the real problem (bad mouse / bad mouse buttons).
