Bug Description
I have a new Dell Inspiron 5547, I am dual booting with ubuntu 14.04.1 and win 8.1. When running on ubuntu, I am using touchpad exclusively, and sometimes the touchpad gets locked into selection and I am unable to unlock. I have tried hitting ESC, tabbing to another window, but unable to unlock. I have other symptons (cursor jumps to other lines of text when typing, cusor jumps to last icon on launch pad), but I think those are all related.
I have tried disabling touchpad when typing but to no avail. It also sometimes seems that this sympthon sometimes survies a reboot.
