[Bug 749567] Re: Mouse cursor jumps and clicks randomly

 

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  I've recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 and from time to time my cursor
  jumps erratically, clicking and opening stuff. I tried disabling desktop
  effects, thinking that it might be related to compiz. I have to mention
  that this happens on a desktop computer, not on a laptop. I am using an
  optical mouse that works fine on Windows XP. I only have this issue on
  Ubuntu 10.10.
  
- I've noticed that pressing ESC or Ctrl will stop the cursor from jumping
- for awhile but it starts again after a few seconds.
