Why does my cursor jump when typing in ubuntu 11.10
- by Stephen Myall
When typing in Ubuntu my cursor jumps around and its not application specific. It doesn't matter or Im filing in a web form, writing an e-mail or using LibreOffice or Lyx. Im using a Sony Vaio 64bit machine.
i read a previous question (link below) on this subject which indicates it may have something to do with the touchpad settings. as this has occurred in previous Ubuntu distros Im guess it is somekind of hardware issue.
How do you turn of the touchpad when typing to avoid the cursor jumping around?
I'd be grateful if anyone can make this stop
