This is very unexpected behavior. I'd be very surprised if the hardware is capable of causing this behavior, unless it is somehow sending a set of keyboard shortcuts that correspond to switching desktops. I'd bet that if you are having that problem, a normal mouse's scrollwheel would cause the exact same problem. Do you have a normal USB mouse that you can try that with? If the problem happens with a USB mouse as well, I'd guess that something is configured strangely in your desktop environment's settings. If the USB mouse behaves normally, I guess something must be really weird about that touchpad, but I'm not sure what it would be. -- R
