["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Alex Fraser, 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 13912

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

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Mouse and touchpad don't work well together

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When the touchpad and USB mouse on my laptop are both enabled, neither gets
  initialised properly.

  After booting and logging in, the pointer seems to get stuck to the first widget
  it is clicked on in each window. For example, I can drag a box on the desktop,
  but then I can't activate any icons by clicking on them. If I open a calculator,
  the first button I click on works, but then none of the others even receive
  "enter" signals. Strangely, after clicking the middle mouse button everything
  works perfectly.

  If I disable the USB mouse in xorg.conf the touchpad works fine. Attempting to
  disable the touchpad doesn't seem to work - it just starts acting like a regular
  mouse, and sends data to /dev/input/mice.

  I'm running a recent version of Hoary:
   * linux-image-2.6.10-4-k7 Version: 2.6.10-27
   * xserver-common, xserver-xorg, xorg-common Version: 6.8.2-2
   * xorg-driver-synaptics Version: 0.13.6-0ubuntu4

  My laptop is a Compaq Presario 700. The mouse is a Logitech iFeel
  mouse.

  I'll attach my xorg.conf and xorg log files, and dmesg output.
