Comment 7 for bug 1374212

BIOS was updated to A04, issue is still occuring, although there does seem to be some minor improvement in severity of issue. Now I don't have to reboot system when cursor is in text selection mode. Issue - When using using touchpad, cursor will select text when moving cursor around, then it will only highlight text selected when cursor is moved using touchpad. It is difficult to get touchpad out of text selection mode, have to hit escape and arrow key. This issue is intermittent.

I ran the command you requested:

 >>
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version & sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
[1] 2872
A04
