[Bug 673336] Re: erratic typing input, random copy, paste and delete input

 

The tip about synclient was very helpful to me. My normal typing
position was causing random middle-clicks to occur and I had no idea
what was going on. Disabling RTCornerButton and RBCornerButton fixed
this.

Title:
  erratic typing input, random copy, paste and delete input

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Random copy, paste, highlight, delete, and mouse moving occurring
  while typing even though hand is not in contact with touchpad. I have
  enabled the "disable touchpad while typing" option. I was expecting to
  be able to type without random copy/paste/delete/highlight and moving
  occurring. Instead the it randomly performing the aforementioned
  functions--but only while typing. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a
  Dell Studio Laptop with no external mice or keyboards. I have also
  tested the touchpad/typing combination and it appears that I can
  delete things while typing (I held down a key) by simply highlighting
  it with the mouse.
