Public bug reported:

Every 15 minutes or so, the cursor stops reacting to input from the
touchpad or trackpoint.  Unfortunately this machine has a "clickpad"
instead of separate buttons and so it is impossible to use the machine
without the touchpad, which means that Ubuntu is virtually unusable.  In
Windows on the same machine there is no problem.
