** Description changed: Binary package hint: xorg Found using the Lucid alpha 1 liveCD This is one of the weirdest bugs I've ever seen, but the macbook 2,1's mouse cursor is being controlled by the accelerometer, such that the best way to use the mouse is to tilt the laptop. Whenever the laptop moves slightly, the cursor will reset to a specific X,Y on the screen. However, the X,Y it resets to is being determined by the accelerometer. I've tried modprobe -r appletouch (the touchpad driver in macbooks), and it segfaults and crashes X. modprobe appletouch does the same. It seems to not be related to the appletouch driver though, since the problem persisted after modprobe -r (which did work, despite the seg fault - after restarting X, I could no longer control the cursor with the touchpad at all). - I've attached dmesg, syslog, and Xorg.0.old - sorry for not using - ubuntu-bug to report, but Xorg.0.old kept flushing after restarting x, + I've attached dmesg, syslog, and Xorg.0.log - sorry for not using + ubuntu-bug to report, but Xorg.0.log kept flushing after restarting x, so it wouldn't contain traces from the segfault. Let me know if you need anything else. This bug, while somewhat humorous, still makes Lucid useless in the meantime and I won't be able to install until it's fixed.
