Cursor running wild, then crashes on an Asus G73sw
- by Yarchmon
The cursor sometimes goes wild, I get random clicks, the windows are resizing, the cursor disappears. In the worst case, clicks and keyboards are disabled.
I've tried the solution given on doc.ubuntu-fr.org and add tu grub :
i8042.nomux=1 i8042.reset=1 in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
But it didn't work
What can I do ?
Graphic card : Geforce GTX460M.
Ubuntu : 11.10 (64 bits).
Laptop Asus G73sw
Interface : Unity (since 11.10) - didn't get this problem with Gnome before.
Complement: when a window is resizing, it gets drag-boxes at every corner, center of sides and center of the window. It looks like my touchpad sends random info, or like a "ghost" touchscreen.

Edit 01-09-12:
Tried on Ubuntu 2D: the behavior is different: it's like i'm randomly clicking on the workspace switcher icon. In the worst case, it can happen several times in a minute.
