Bug Description
The touchpad repetitively gets out of sync, causing the mouse to jump around and randomly click things:
[ 399.788431] psmouse serio1: DualPoint TouchPad at isa0060/
[ 399.798582] psmouse serio1: DualPoint TouchPad at isa0060/
WORKAROUND: Loading the psmouse driver with proto=exps largely avoids the problem, but has the side effect of merging the trackpad and the nub together as one input device (so you can't disable the trackpad and just use the nub).
Setting reset after on the driver does fix the random moving and clicking, but causes the CPU to thrash as it constantly disconnects and reconnects to try to "resync."
