Public bug reported:
Since I upgraded to the Hardy beta, my touchpad displays very weird
behavior. The most prominent and disturbing feature is that whenever I
put my finger on it, it moves the cursor a distance proportional to the
distance between the absolute point on the physical touchpad where I
last had my finger before lifting it from the touchpad, and the new
position on the touchpad where I put my finger back down. This makes it
impossible to move any large distance, since any effect from dragging
the finger from edge to edge is negated.
That is not all, however. The other problem is that various features of
the touchpad (including the above described antifeature) seem to turn on
and off seemingly randomly (but very seldomly). Suddenly, the above
described antifeature can simply vanish, and it may come back later
(often much later). Other features affected including drag-touching and
virtual mouse wheel scrolling.
It is worth noting that the problem does not manifest itself at all
before I've logged in with GDM, or when I start a new X server with no
clients, so I'm guessing the problem lies somewhere within Gnome.
