Mouse Always Double Clicks

God this is possibly the most annoying problem i have ever come across, and the solution is near on impossible to find!

Basically in vmware, when using an operating system, all single clicks get interpreted as double clicks. How annoying could it possibly want to be!!

After MUCH MUCH MUCH searching on google a simple tutorial or solution really wasn't very apparent. But finally, low and behold I now have the answer.

This bug occured for me in fedora, and one of my work colleges in centos, and also i have read reports of it happening in ubuntu and other various linux OS's. The solution is fairly simple tho, just read below all all mouse clicks will finally read as a single click instead of the fake double click you were getting:

su root vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf

add this to the bottom (or replace if u already have something along these lines)

Section "InputDevice"

Identifier "Configured Mouse"

Driver "vmmouse"

Option "CorePointer"

Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"

Option "Protocol" "ps/2"

Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"

EndSection

Section "InputDevice"

Identifier "XOrgMouseWorkaround"

Driver "void"

EndSection

Then add that new device to the ServerLayout section:

InputDevice "XOrgMouseWorkaround"

type :wq! now press control + alt + backspace to restart x, and your done!
