[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1574667] Re: Mouse pointer occasionally jumps to the bottom-left corner
Lenovo Ideapad 2 13 (2 in 1 convertible, touchscreen) Ubuntu 18.04 (+ 17.10, + 16.04) even after installing 18.04 and the latest updates on Jan 2nd 2018 the following feature persists: a few times a week the cursor goes nuts - it looks like it's jumping to the lower left corner (gnome desktop), clicking, and thereby calling the program tiles onto the screen. Then clicking again making the tiles disappear, clicking again calling the tiles,. sometimes with quite a high frequency. This turns the laptop pretty much useless because it's "trapped" in this state. Whatever you try it's always calling the tiles :-( This happens even if I'm not touching the notebook at all!! I couldn't find anything to influence this behavior. Even after rebooting it continues! But at some random point in time the jumping stops and the notebook can be used as before and works like a charm - until the jumping starts again. Because I used the fix from https://askubuntu.com/users/750621/keringar (Thank you!!) the on screen keyboard is not coming any more. But for me it looks that the root cause of the osk popping up is the cursor jump/click. As I have tried very many of the suggestions above and in other forums I tend to believe that it's really a bug somewhere deep inside (graphic driver?) as this bug appeared with Gnome and also Unity desktop. Solving this for good would REALLY promote the use of Ubuntu :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574667 Title: Mouse pointer occasionally jumps to the bottom-left corner Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Sometimes the mouse pointer jumps directly to the bottom-left corner of the screen, which results in opening the trash window when clicking.

update to my entry #47: installed ubuntu 18.04 daily build from Dec 11, 2017 on the Lenovo IdeaPad/Yoga 2 13 with touch screen. For one day everything went fine except one single appearance of the on screen keyboard (osk). On the second day the osk got crazy, appearing that frequently that working with the mouse or touch screen was practically impossible. But the cursor didn't jump (to lower left corner) as it did with 17.04 and 17.10. The osk sometimes flickered really fast giving the impression of being turned on/off at least 10x/second - without me touching anything on the laptop! Then I applied the fix provided by https://askubuntu.com/users/750621/keringar (Thank you!!) and now I can use the laptop again.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1723857] Re: onscreen keyboard appears whenever i touch touchscreen
Hello, having the same problem on a Lenovo IdeaPad/Yoga 2 13 (with touch screen): ubuntu 17.10 fresh install, the on screen keyboard (osk) always pops up. But ALWAYS in conjunction with the cursor being found in the lower left corner. On the same laptop running Ubuntu 16.04.3 and 17.04 (running Unity) I had the nasty problem that always the trash bin opened (because the cursor jumped to the lower left corner - where the trash bin is located - and clicked) independent on what I was doing. That made the laptop unusable (running fine under Win 8, hence no hardware defect). Now with 17.10 (Gnome) the trash bin is no longer in the lower left corner. But my feel is that the cursor is still jumping (and clicking) to the lower left, thereby 'calling' the osk. Again this happens that frequently that the laptop is unusable :-( really nasty. Universal Access settings: osk = off (if I enable osk, then the desktop freezes!!). The fix of Keringar prevents the osk from popping up - but the cursor still continues to jump to the lower left corner :-(. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723857 Title: onscreen keyboard appears whenever i touch touchscreen Status in GNOME Shell: Confirmed Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gnome-shell source package in Artful: Triaged Bug description: Impact == I'm in 17.10.
