I do not know if this helps at all but: If I modprobe -r psmouse and then add it again the erratic behaviour goes back to normal quite fast. But when this shows up you are practically stuck no matter what you do. Anything that fixes it does so for a couple of minutes and then goes back to crazy. The only real option is restarting and hoping it will fix things for a long enough time to do some work.

It goes to the bottom right corner of the screen and flickers, clicking stuff randomly. * Adding a USB mouse and deactivating the trackpad makes no difference. * Tried Kubuntu 15.10, problem still there. * Tried suggestions in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2235704 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2229831&page=2&p=13451930#post13451930 without success also. As mentioned by other users, my laptop is currently unusable. I do not want to switch to Windows but, given the current hardware I have, I do not see how I can resolve this.
