[Bug 70539] Re: Erratic touch pad cursor movement

 

Dhonn Lushine, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg 70539

Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes
button for attaching additional debugging information.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Erratic touch pad cursor movement

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When typing the cursor can just jump far off to the corners of the
  screen and at times clicking stuff when my palm barely touches the
  pad.

  There has to be a patch that prevents such erratic cursor movement
  especially from a touch pad.

  Erratic cursor movement should not even be possible.
