Mary Gardiner, 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 as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg 12124 Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information. Thank you for your understanding.

After approximately a second of movement, the response returns to normal and my cursor does not speed around my screen, nor does it randomly open things on my dekstop. A single touch on the touchpad after logging into my Ubuntu system has on various occasions done the following: opened the calendar application, opened the trash window multiple times, and resized and moved my panel. This is clearly undesirable, I would prefer that my system have the mouse not "go crazy" at any time. This is 100% reproducible on my system on both warty and hoary.
