Bug Description

I'm using ubuntu 17.10 Gnome. When I place my finger over the touchpad the pointer keeps shaking. It is really difficult to use the touchpad due to this problem as I can't click on a desired icon on the screen. I had the same problem while using ubuntu 17.04 unity.

Description: Ubuntu 17.10
Release: 17.10
