I have an HP Spectre x360 (13t-aw200) that has had problems with its touchpad since I first loaded Ubuntu onto it. When it initially starts, it's working fine, then at some point in time (it's unclear what triggers it), it gets into this state where simply doing a single-finger swipe to move the cursor no longer works. If I press down and swipe, it does move/select as expected, but when I return to not pressing down, it goes back to its previous, unworking state.
Other clues:
- It appears if I press HARD but don't cause a down event, it SOMETIMES moves the cursor.
- If it's in this state and I'm on some scrolling window, it will scroll with a single finger (i.e. as it acts as if I have two fingers down).
- It often will return to a working state for a while then go back to not working.
