Title:
  With touchpad browser tab sometimes closes when selected

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am running 10.10 on a acer extensia laptop. With the touchpad I get
  some inconsistent behavior using browsers. Currently firefox beta and
  chrome. There are multiple tabs open, clicking on the tab will
  sometimes close it instead of showing that tab. At other times
  clicking on a link that should show the new page in the same tab,
  spawns a new tab to show the page. It can take two or three clicks for
  it to show the page in the original tab.

  EDIT: Occasionally when I open a new tab a warning message appears to
  tell me that I'm about to open over 700 tabs. This behavior can happen
  with an RSS feed.

  It seems to happen more often on the firefox beta.

  Not sure what technical information to help the devs.
