Thus you can't access the taskbar, for example. No matter where you start touching the touchpad, the cursor stops one inch short of all edges of the screen.
If you touch in the middle it would appear in the middle. When you touch the touchpad, the cursor jumps to the part of the screen relative to where you touch on the touchpad.įor example, if you touch the top right corner of the touchpad the mouse cursor appears at the top right corner of the screen. But, in fact, there is a pattern to the misbehavior. Some people complain that the touchpad cursor jumps erratically. From reading dozens of posts, it appears there are a lot of touchpad issues for Dell laptops when using the 4.0+ kernel. :-)Īfter seeing this problem on 2 different Dell laptops in a row, and E6500 and and E6430, I thought I'd make this post for posterity in case someone comes to the forums looking for a solution to this problem. Somehow, I didn't trust the solution of his cat sitting on the keyboard for an hour or so in his terminal, covering his screen in "W"s. I searched all over the forums and found no thread that spoke directly to this problem except for one.
