The problem is related to electrical interference from the power supply (see http://superuser.com/questions/76649/laptop-touchpad-works- incorrectly-when-on-power-supply). As suggested by users here, increasing the noise threshold helps.

Brendan Griffin, 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?

[Bug 1028617] Re: Cursor shakes violently when connected to power source - makes touchpad cursor unusable
My Lenovo has the same problem of the arrow shaking. I unplugged the power cord and it stopped shaking. So then I plugged the power cord in again and the arrow starting shaking. I switched power outlets and it still shook. So then for some strange reason I let one corner of the laptop rest on top of the back of my left hand (while the power cord was plugged in) and the shaking stopped. I tried to prop it up with a folded hand towel and then a piece of thick rubber instead of my hand, and the arrow shook.

My shake is more moderate than described, and generally mostly occurs when I am staying still. When I actually move around the shaking isn't so bad. It's also very on and off: sometimes it's there, sometimes not. I didn't notice until I read this bug report that unplugging made it go away because it was so inconsistent. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1028617 Title: Cursor shakes violently when connected to power source - makes touchpad cursor unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/1028617/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1028617] Re: Cursor shakes violently when connected to power source - makes touchpad cursor unusable
I don't know, is this is helpfull, but this bug affects me too. But, i have two diferent adapters, one with earthing ( i hope, this is the correct word, one with 3 cables go to wall) and one without ( only 2 cables, i buy it for have to adapters, one for home use, one for traveling ). With one, that is with earthing, this problem don't appear, but with that one without, problem ocurs. One friend of me told me, that there might be problem with touchpad and not earthing adapter. But, here is another thing. When i plug in adapter which brings problem ( that without earthing ), problem occurs. But, when i connect my USB hub which has own adapter, shaking is smaller, but when i plug in my HDMI monitor, which has cable with earthing, problem totaly disappeared. So, i hope, i was helpfull somehow... But if I'm right, i don't know, what can software do for removing this problem. PS.: sorry, if I broke some rules of this bug reporting, but i never do this before and i just wan't to help. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1028617 Title: Cursor shakes violently when connected to power source - makes touchpad cursor unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/1028617/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
