This problem continues. I've discovered the following: 1) The problem shows up with gpm, as well as X 2) I can plug in a USB mouse and it works fine. 3) If I boot into Windows (ugh), the touch pad works fine. (It's a bit slow in movement, but I assume that's driver settings).
What's the likely hood this a hardware problem that only shows itself in Linux and not Windows?
