** Description changed:

  On MSI GT60-20C with Ubuntu 14.10, the touchpad freezes the XServer when
  combining LeftClick + Tap, or multifinger taps.
  
  As a workaround, I was partly initializing the XServer by performing a
  Ctrl+Alt+F1 then a Ctrl+Alt+F7. The touchpad continues to work after
  this.
  
  I tried to dig deeper into the problem, so when the XServer freezed
  again, I continued to move the cursor to a known place, I performed
  after my Ctrl+Alt+F1/F7 combination, and found the cursor in a different
  place after freezing. This actually means that when the XServer freezes
  it only stops rendering the place of the cursor.
  
  I got an idea, and installed Gnome Pointing Devices; I changed the
  settings of Vertical/Horizontal scrolling and the problem seemed to
  occur less up till now.
  
  EDIT: It happened again, I was watching a video, the video continued to
  play but the compositor stopped rendering the screen. I am running the
- opensource NVidia binary driver on my OS (NVidia GK106M GeForce GTX 770M
- version 331.104 from nvidia-331)
+ proprietary NVidia binary driver on my OS (NVidia GK106M GeForce GTX
+ 770M version 331.104 from nvidia-331)
