[Phil <1374212@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

I have a new Dell Inspiron 5547, I am dual booting with ubuntu 14.04.1
and win 8.1.  When running on ubuntu, I am using touchpad exclusively,
and sometimes the touchpad gets locked into selection and I am unable to
unlock.  I have tried hitting ESC, tabbing to another window, but unable
to unlock.  I have other symptons (cursor jumps to other lines of text
when typing, cusor jumps to last icon on launch pad), but I think those
are all related.

I have tried disabling touchpad when typing but to no avail.  It also
sometimes seems that this sympthon sometimes survies a reboot.
