Thank you for taking time to report this bug and help making Ubuntu
better. Sadly, we not always have capacity to triage bugs on time. Since
Ubuntu has 2 releases since last update, Would you please try to
reproduce this bug on any of the updated versions of this package.
** Description changed:
+ When I use various single applications, the mouse (touchpad) on occasion
+ jumps to a seemingly random location on the screen; usually happens only
+ if I am moving the mouse. But the killer is that sometimes the mouse
+ buttons stop responding -- requiring me to reboot the system atleast a
+ few times each day.

- PROBLEM: When I use various single applications, the mouse (touchpad) on
occasion jumps to a seemingly random location on the screen; usually happens
only if I am moving the mouse. But the killer is that sometimes the one of the
mouse buttons stop responding -- requiring me to reboot the system at least a
few times each day; sometimes it affects Gnome and/or an application (ie can
use scroll bar, but not Browser: File/Edit/View etc; or can't click Gnome:
Applications/Places/System).
