Marek Matusiak, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-synaptics REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is
already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one
would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Touching the mousepad while typing causes multiplication of next
  letter pressed and loss of subsequent keyboard input

Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  In my Compal JFL92- laptop running Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty I have a problem
  that becomes apparent while typing text and (usually accidentally)
  touching the mousepad at the same time. The next letter I press after
  the mousepad gets multiplied, the keyboard gets 'stuck' and loses some
  following keyboard input until the system recovers.

  Example: mousepad followed by s -> sssssssssssss.

  I tested the problem also with Ubuntu 9.04 and 8.10 live-cds. With the 9.04 I 
could replicate the problem, but with 8.10 I could notice some lag of the 
keyboard input appearing on screen but no loss or replication of characters as 
with 9.04.
  I've also noticed some hpet output in dmesg like this:

  CE: hpet increasing min_delta_ns to 15000 nsec

  Even with disabling hpet the problem persists.

  dmesg attached.
