[Bug 1285934] Re: track pad often freezes or gets jerky - it works intermittently

 

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.14 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

Title:
  track pad often freezes or gets jerky - it works intermittently

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Randomly, the trackpad will stop movingthe pointer around the screen
  reliably. It may freeze for a second, or several. Or it may repeatedly
  freeze and release a few times a second, making it jerk across the
  screen. Scrolling is affected the same way. I found a workaround that
  involves turning psmouse off and on again. That seems to work.
  Sometimes just for a few minutes, other times for a few days.

  Second problem: The system clock disappeared from the 'taskbar' at the
  top. The clock settings in the system settings menu was grayed out. I
  found a procedure to turn that on and off again too. So far so good.

  The first problem might have happened a little bit under 13.04 as
  well, I'm not certain if the first time was before or after the
  upgrade to 13.10

  Sorry I'm a noob. I'm not even sure if this is the right way to make a
  bug report.
