Public bug reported:

I'm using an Apple Magic Trackpad for quite a while now. In 12.10 it has
worked like a charm, but after upgrading to 13.04 it started to jump my
cursor around sometimes.

For example: When scrolling in firefox, it gets done by first putting
two fingers on the pad and pulling them down. The content scrolls
correctly. But when i then remove my fingers from the pad and put them
at the top again, it instantly scrolls back to where it was before,
which kind of defeats the purpose of scrolling.

Another example: Before the upgrade, it was possible to drag the
scrollbar-handle (or a file) with one finger and when the finger reached
the end of the pad, i could simply put a second finger on the pad and
continue dragging with that finger. But after the upgrade the cursor
jumps around the screen as soon as the second finger hits the pad.

I'm not sure if it is related, but sometimes the whole graphic session
crashes and drops me to the login-screen when using multiple fingers on
the trackpad.

I'm willing to provide debug information, test patched packages and do
thinks like that if it helps fixing the bug.
