[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1574667] Re: Mouse pointer occasionally jumps to the bottom-left corner
Same problem on my thinkpad t440s. I think I've pin-pointed what's going on. Tapping in two separate locations on the trackpad very quickly in succession registers as if you have put your finger down in the first location and swiped it to the second location, thus causing the cursor to move as if you swiped rapidly. I tied messing with all the synaptics settings but no luck. Juans fix works, but you lose a lot of the nice feel of synaptics settings. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574667 Title: Mouse pointer occasionally jumps to the bottom-left corner Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Sometimes the mouse pointer jumps directly to the bottom-left corner of the screen, which results in opening the trash window when clicking.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1574667] Re: Mouse pointer occasionally jumps to the bottom-left corner
I have had the same issue with my Lenovo Thinkpad T440s. I thought it was random at first but have figured out how to consistently reproduce the problem. The mouse will jump across the screen when you tap or click in two different locations on the left side of the trackpad very quickly in succession. The mouse jumps in the direction of the second click relative to the first click, so if you use a middle finger to scroll and then an index finger to click, this typically causes the mouse to jump towards the bottom left. I think Juan is correct in that the issue comes from the driver, possibly because the kernel takes over using psmouse. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574667 Title: Mouse pointer occasionally jumps to the bottom-left corner Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Sometimes the mouse pointer jumps directly to the bottom-left corner of the screen, which results in opening the trash window when clicking.
