By the way: though it's monumentally annoying, I have a USB mouse on hand from a
recent shipment. That works, and gives me some degree of satisfaction.
Should I turn the touchpad off completely and use the USB mouse exclusively until I can
solve the problem?
I tried using KDE System Settings for the touchpad. But when I tried raising the
sensitivity of the touchpad, all that happened was that it locked.
Too bad you reinstalled your system. It would have easier to figure out what packages
were most recently installed.
Of course, you could try booting into the previous kernel to see if that is the problem.
On my system there were updates to 3 xorg-x11-server pacages. xorg-x11-server-common,
xorg-x11-server-Xephyr, and xorg-x11-server-Xorg. I believe they may influence pointing
devices when run in GUI.
Not sure if it is the same for touchpads, but my mouse does move a block around in
runlevel 3. You could boot to that and see if you get the same sort of things with your
touchpad and if it is responsive. Or, just downgrade the xorg packages to see if that has
any effect.
