Touchpad cursor is jerky
All is in the title, this on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS freshly installed. When I connect my regular mouse it works just fine but the touchpad is still jerky.
Please help me. I've looked in a lot of places on line.
I have a ASUS laptop:
$ xinput list
elan1200;00 04F3:303E Touchpad
18.04 mouse mouse-pointer

Please add more details about your touchpad (vendor, version, etc.). Also information from your desktop touchpad configuration would help.

In the settings for your TouchPad, disable "Tap to Click". This worked for me.
