I'm reporting this on the i2c component since i2c came up often in Google results when searching for similar touchpad issues. I am kind of clueless, OEM won't help, libinput doesn't seem at fault, the only thing left to consider, short of a batch of faulty touchpads, seems to be the kernel. Dell won't help 'cause it's Linux' and my laptop shipped with Windows, but some users reported they have started noticing the same issue also on Windows sessions, when alternating them with Linux ones. The issue is still reproducible to this day. I have personally reproduced this on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and 21.04 kernels booted via live media, as well as on openSuse Tumbleweed and Arch linux - just to make sure I'd get the most recent kernel versions to test. We have managed to reproduce it on X11 as well as Wayland sessions, several different desktop environments, several distros, several kernels. In the libinput issue I've linked we have tried to make some collective progress on investigation, but couldn't really pin this issue on anything so far. Me and several other DELL owners seem to be affected - can't recall of people with other laptops having this issue, but then again it seems to be affecting Intel Tiger Lake (11th gen) mobile platform, so maybe not many people got one of those yet. I initially suspected a libinput issue, but libinput maintainers couldn't find anything wrong with that.

Issue is quite unpredictable, temporary, and duration is variable (can vary between a few seconds to at most a couple of minutes per occurrence, in my experience). I have reported a touchpad issue with my recent Dell laptop on the libinput issue tracker:ĭescription in short: cursor suddenly gains plenty of inertia and becomes very hard to move even by small amounts.
