Bug Description
After fresh-installation of Loki, my AlpsPS/2 Dualpoint Touchpad has a bug. Whenever I place my finger on the Touchpad, the cursor 'jitters' or 'jumps.
The cursor also moves when my finger is almost 1 mm above the touchpad and has not yet touched it.
This bug also exists with synaptic touchpads.
The touchpad's sensitivity was very good in Freya but too high (almost unusable) in Loki.
