Bug Description
My touchpad is behaving strangely (As far as I remember it only appeared after some update in Utopic).
Using a two or three finger click, it needs several tries till it actually "accepts" the click. Sometimes the mouse pointer jumps to a different location on the screen when clicking with two or the fingers.
Whenever the touchpad is used, errors get logged in /var/log/Xorg.0.log which seem to be related to the synaptic driver.
Approximately once every week my X server crashes with a segmentation fault. First the screen turns black and after ~30 seconds the login screen appears. In this case the Xorg.0.log ends like this:

I'm not sure if this a different bug or related to synaptic...

Unfortunately it has no influence on the touchpad behaviour. The errors showing up are still like the ones logged in XorgLog. txt/xserver. errors. txt
