[Bug 494504] [NEW] cannot move mouse while pressing key

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

* mouse pointer freezes when a key is pressed
* if I hold a key, then move mouse, release key, then move mouse infinitesimally, then the mouse position has changed the way I intended when I held the key
* this is not a laptop hence no touchpad
* I have tried another mouse
* I have tried with original mac keyboard+mouse

this one does not seem to  apply, there is no touchpad menu:
