            Bug ID: 96290
           Summary: Cursor is over excited and jittering all the time
           Product: Wayland
           Version: 1.2.x
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: libinput
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: cooks.go.hungry at gmail.com

I have found that since installing this package that (unlike before the
installation) my cursor seems over excited all the time as even when I just
have my finger on it but am not moving it really at all it is jumping up and
down very quickly and always jittering (this is very annoying if one is trying
to go down a page by pulling the side-bar down with the cursor for it jumps up
and down most of the time and shakes and when try to be move still). I also (no
matter how I adjust the speed in the gnome-control-center) can't seem to get it
to be the right speed, it's either too fast or too slow (it was just the right
speed and non of the jittering before installing this package, now with this
package it seems practically impossible to get it right) and no matter the
speed setting, it is always jittering about, maybe there needs to be some way
of also changing touchpad sensitivity or something because this cursor is just
crazy.

It also seems as though I am not the only one with these problems:

I initially reported this issue here but thought I should also do so upstream:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libinput/+bug/1586686

The issue is with the "xserver-xorg-input-libinput" package though I was told
to report it under this one, the version of that package is "0.18.0-1" and I am
running Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 with GNOME 3.20 (more information is provided in the
downstream bug report I linked). I selected the version number "1.2.x" for this
bug because the only package with a similar name that I could find on my system
("libinput10") had the version number of "1.2.3-1ubuntu1". I hope that I am
filing my report in the correct place.
