Gnome Double Click Update

A while ago, I posted a problem about double click to open not working 
in GNOME.

And I replied:

I have double click enabled in KDE, which has been running right  along. 
Come to think of it,
GNOME doesn't recognize my mouse  wheel in a scroll bar either. Maybe 
its a conflict between
an .ini in  KDE and one in GNOME. 

Since then, I have done a large amount of switching between GNOME and 
KDE, and noticed that the cursor response to mouse movement was 
generally very sluggish in GNOME compared to KDE. I could not find a way 
to change this in GNOME, so I logged on to KDE and increased the 
accelerator and double click interval settings, then went back to GNOME. 
I now have functional double click and scroll on the mouse.

I also discovered that in KDE, like Windows, both the graphic image and 
title of an icon are "hotspots", however in GNOME, only the TITLE of a 
given icon is the hotspot for the cursor to launch an app or open a 
directory.
