Public bug reported:
After upgrading to Ubuntu 16.10: the mouse cursor movements became
absolute (similar to Wacom tablets, but unable to reach the edges or
corners of the screen), rather than relative to where my finger was
initially placed on the touchpad. My laptop is a Lenovo Ideapad 310, but
https://askubuntu.com/questions/865690/ describes the same issue
happening on a Dell laptop.
Manually installing xserver-xorg-input-all resolved the issue, which
indicates that the decision to switch to xserver-xorg-hwe by default was
severely premature.
