Hi, OK, here I am. The bug is still there. It's _annoyingly_ subtle -- I can see how a lot of developers wouldn't eve notice by using the touchpad just for a few seconds. The touchpad "works".
However, this is exactly what happens: ONLY AFTER leaving it still for a couple of seconds, there is a 200m or 400ms (milliseconds) delay between you moving your finger and the pointer coming to life. If after that pause you keep on moving the mouse, it goes *perfectly* well. If you stop for a little bit, and try to move it again, it will be stuck again -- your finger can move up to about a centimetre, or more, before the pointer finally moves. The usability result of this are disastrous. You know something is wrong, you tend to blame the surface of the touchpad, you clean it, and after a while it stresses the hell out of you. Please let me know what info I could provide to see if this can be fixed. I am pretty good with Linux. I have already: * Checked the settings under Mouse -> Touchpad. Disable touch while typing doesn't seem to make a difference. Disabling or enabling edge scrolling doesn't make a difference either. I have been travelling with this laptop with an external mouse for 1 year and a half. I will decommission it in 6 months. When I do, I will have to install Windows on it again, as I can't put anybody through this touchpad...
