Hi,

I just wanted to add that I downgraded to Ubuntu 8.10 (I can't deal with
computer freezes... I don't have a test machine, sorry :( ).

Now... the problem is _there_ as well! But, it's much more subtle. I
think it's subtle enough to make people slightly hate their touchpad and
Ubuntu in general, but it's not clear enough (not in 8.10) to go "Ah,
that's what's happening!".

In 8.10 as well, there is a small delay from when the touchpad has input
to when the driver actually does something about it. I must say the
problem is WAY less in 8.10 than 9.04, but I _guarantee_ it's there. If
you know it's there, you suddenly realise why you hate the touchpad and
you see clearly the delay. In 9.04, the  problem is multiplied by 5x
(give or take), and that's why people noticed.

I am happy to provide whatever info you might need.

Merc.
