Public bug reported:

I am facing a very annoying hardware problem. It's so bad tha it makes
hard even to report it: the mouse (touchpad in this case) keeps moving
to the left side of the screen and clicking by itself. So all the
programs on the Unity sidebar are keept being opened until the system
gets without memory and very slow.

Since the hardware is a relatively new ultrabook, I tought a newer
kernel could had solve this issue, so I upgrade to saucy. Everything
worked well after the first boot which followed the upgrade but after
rebooting again the same thing started to happen.

That's the device ID given by lsusb command:

Bus 003 Device 003: ID 04f3:0035 Elan Microelectronics Corp.

I also thought it  could be a problem with the touchscreen, but dmesg
gives me a lot of error messages for the touchpad, with seems to be
recognized as a psmouse. Installing gpointing-device-settings package
and openning the config tool shows no touchpad related options.
