It sounds like maybe your keyboard is just broken. Do you have another OS you can boot into on that laptop to try typing there, as well? If not, I guess I have a few recommendations, if it really is just the touchpad:
- make sure your hands don't touch the touchpad at all when you're typing (I've had this problem before) - Clean off the keyboard, make sure there's no gunk stuck anywhere and no buttons jammed down, especially on the touchpad - disable the touchpad altogether, and just use a regular mouse. There's usually a function key to disable it. If the problem does seem to be just the keyboard, please let us know so we can close out this issue. -- Cursor position is automagically changed/selected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331008 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
