Comment 30 for bug 1506817

Hi Chris,
I upgraded my X250 to Ubuntu 16.04 Beta 2, and the mouse sticking bug remains.
Here are the steps that I took, for clarity:
1) I cloned my hard drive using a USB appliance and the dd command

2) I then put the cloned hard drive in an older Lenovo X201 ThinkPad
The X201 is the system I am now using for day to day work. I have taken the X250 out of service, as it is not usable,
due to the left-mouse-button-sticking (LMBS) issue (the topic of hits thread).

 LMBS = "Left mouse button sticking"

3) I then did an upgrade of the X250 from 15.10 to Ubuntu 16.04-Beta2.

4) I confirmed that the LMBS issue was still present on the X250 (sad but true)

5) I confirmed that the LMBS is NOT present on the X201. Note that the X201 has a TouchPad, and that the X201 BIOS
has an option to turn off the TouchPad, just like the X250.

In summary:
the LMBS is still present on the X250 with 16.04-Beta 2 but is not present on the X201 running 15.10

I have much more information on this now that I have the X201, with its touchpad, with at touchpad BIOS, but I won't
post that right now, until you deem it useful.

My guess is that the firmware on the synaptics touchpad is buggy. For example what is this all about:

$ locate synaptics | grep bug
/usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
/usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/script
