How I have managed to deal with it is to make sure I open a terminal window on 
one of my desktops and just unloading and reloading the driver, which get's 
everything working right again. It's a lot better then reloading X or 
rebooting. It happens mostly in 
Firefox, but I have noticed it in other apps as well. It would be nice if there 
was an update from ubuntu since there seems to be a lot of people having the 
same problem.

modprobe -r psmouse
modprobe psmouse
