Hi Kent,

The bug gets triggered when I move the cursor with one finger (index)
and click with another (thumb). It is an old habit I carried over from
using the MacBooks.

If I move and click on the touchpad with only one finger, the cursor
doesn't jump from one point to another some distance away.

Hi AceLan,

Thank you so much for looking into the touchpad issues we are having.
I'm trying to figure out why the particular usage pattern I described
above would cause the cursor jump. Is there any utility I can use to log
the mouse events (type, movement, and click) to better understand what's
going on?
