Work-around: If, like me, you have difficulty not touching the touchad while you type, you can use xinput to disable it:
xinput --list and find the id of the touchpad. Say it is 12: xinput set-prop 12 "Device Enabled" 0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/747126 Title: X crashes on first touchpad touch -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
