Hi Chris, I upgraded my X250 to Ubuntu 16.04 Beta 2, and the mouse sticking bug remains. Here are the steps that I took, for clarity: 1) I cloned my hard drive using a USB appliance and the dd command
2) I then put the cloned hard drive in an older Lenovo X201 ThinkPad The X201 is the system I am now using for day to day work. I have taken the X250 out of service, as it is not usable, due to the left-mouse-button-sticking (LMBS) issue (the topic of hits thread). LMBS = "Left mouse button sticking" 3) I then did an upgrade of the X250 from 15.10 to Ubuntu 16.04-Beta2. 4) I confirmed that the LMBS issue was still present on the X250 (sad but true) 5) I confirmed that the LMBS is NOT present on the X201. Note that the X201 has a TouchPad, and that the X201 BIOS has an option to turn off the TouchPad, just like the X250. In summary: the LMBS is still present on the X250 with 16.04-Beta 2 but is not present on the X201 running 15.10 I have much more information on this now that I have the X201, with its touchpad, with at touchpad BIOS, but I won't post that right now, until you deem it useful. My guess is that the firmware on the synaptics touchpad is buggy. For example what is this all about: $ locate synaptics | grep bug /usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics /usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/script -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1506817 Title: left TPP/2 IBM TrackPoint "sticks on" randomly (X250 15.04) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1506817/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
