Bug Description

When I'm not touching the touchpad the mouse pointer sits in one place; if I touch the touchpad however, the pointer flutters and drifts upward slowly. I expect the mouse pointer to stay still in this instance.

Happens to me too. Not necessarily in a specific direction. But from time to time the touchpad has similar problems on Lenovo B50-30 Ubuntu 15.10 (and Ubuntu 15.04).
