Slow down repeat rate on 'click, [not doule click which is setable]

Due to old age and disease, [I use an old Logitech trackball Marble TrackMan] a click usually ends up as a double or triple click [left and right] - which results in surprising and often disastrous results!

Does anyone know of software I can use within the O/S [Mate 18.10] or a CMOS? Anything.
