Where is the setting that lets me change my default double click to a single click for opening applications?

Open up your Nautilus file browser > edit > preferences > behavior tab > enable single click to open items.

I found it for KDE

Open Dolphin, Go to Settings -> Configure Dolphin -> Navigation - Under mouse you can choose single click or double click to open files and folders.

Thanks guys for the answers.

P.S. hey Clyde - don't you mean 3 Gigabytes of ram ( sig file). If you can run on 3 mb of ram, I gotta see that! hehe
