Title:
touch is constantly jumping around (ghost touching)
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
The issue I am having is very similar to this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1574667
Depending on what applications are running the apparently random
behavior may increase. Sometimes it is really bad and several times
in one second the system detects random touches around the screen. As
a result Ubuntu automatically zooms in or out or moves the content of
screen around or the focus is stolen. Right now as I am typing this
bug I am getting very dizzy because the UI is constantly zooming in
and out. I have noticed this happens a lot (A LOT!) more frequently
when chrome is opened.
I have tried removing a few xorg input packages as a desperate attempt
to stop this:
```
sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-input-libinput
sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-input-wacom
```
Right now my touch screen is not working and my touchpad never worked.
I have plugged in an external mouse and it works, up until the focus gets
stolen from it by random touches around the screen. Before I
removed libinput mouse pointer was also jumping constantly to a random
location. But since I remove libinput, mouse cursor stays where it is but
random touches seems to be happening anyway.
This is extremely annoying behavious and is rendering my laptop
useless.
I am using Acer Spin 5
