Yes. To be fair, I haven't done much testing in X without the synaptics driver. But I suspect that the jumps are due to the fact that ATP_XFACT and ATP_YFACT in the driver source are a bit high. Try setting them at 32 and 16. Does this help ? In any case, the synaptics driver doesn't have the problem. Given a well chosen acceleration value, it smooths well the movement. > I've also noticed that it sometimes picks up on a non-existant > double-tap when I'm typing (bad habit of tapping my thumb on the bit > between keyboard and trackpad!).

The synaptics driver comes with a daemon which can disable the touchpad when typing on the keyboard.
