Public bug reported: I am running 12.04 alpha 2 x64. Today after an update to xserver-xorg- input-synaptics the clicking on my touchpad has started to act haywire. Randomly I will not be able to click with my pointer. The pointer will still move, but clicking will refuse to work. This usually happens every 2-3 minutes or so, and I either have to log out completely or furriously click until it starts to work again. I believe this to be a regression, as this was not a problem before and has just happened today.
