Cursor jumps to top-right corner when releasing your finger from the touchpad while the left mouse button on the touchpad is pressed, Lenovo E460, ALPS Touchpad

[Exacom]

1) Ubuntu 16.04.01 LTS
2) 1.8.2-1ubuntu3
3) When releasing the finger from the touchpad (e.g. while marking larger portions of text, or scrolling using the sidebar) I expect the cursor to remain in the position it was before the finger was upped from the keyboard.
4) Instead, the cursor jumps to the top right of the screen, marking the entire text of a page and scrolling all the way up.
