| Mar 23, 2016 at 15:34 | comment | added | jbhelfrich | Nope. My bug report is at bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1537308 . I've tried completely shutting of the touchpad, both through xinput (appeared to work for a few hours, but then the touchpad turned back on without my action) and through a desktop entry (didn't change behavior at all, even though the touchpad stayed deactivated.) My next test when I have the patience is to turn off the keyboard instead and see if that resolves things, to at least positively identify the driver responsible. | |

| Oct 3, 2015 at 11:25 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | A bad keyboard driver could inject spurious keyboard events, but not focus changes, and keyboard drivers haven't changed in the last decade or so, so I don't think it's that. What I'd go looking for is some kind of GUI customization application, maybe a keyboard remapper or a macro player or something. I don't know how to identify it; trying with other different GUI sessions setup that may or may not include that buggy application would be a start. | |
| Oct 3, 2015 at 6:27 | comment | added | jbhelfrich | I haven't tried another account on the machine. I did boot into the liveCD image of 15.04, and have left it running all day; the issue has only occurred twice that I've noticed in over 12 hours, so I'm thinking maybe a driver update after install? Tomorrow I'll try another account and/or another distro with a different desktop. | |
