Public bug reported: Using the internal touchpad, buttons will misbehave. Sometimes they will grab as if I performed a click and drag, sometimes they will not register a click until I have clicked several times. While running 'xev', I noticed that on occasion the button will not register both events of ButtonPress and ButtonRelease. When clicking on a button, I will get a ButtonPress event without the matching ButtonRelease. A second or third click are needed before a ButtonRelease event is returned correctly (when the button is released).
