Pointer freezes while typing

#1 Post by pilpintu »

Hello! Installed MX Linux 21.3. The mouse pointer freezes when I start typing on different kinds of software like the web browser, or a text editor, a text box, etc. Then I have to shake the mouse or rub the touchpad a lot with my finger to get it moving again. I wonder if it's by design, or is it a bug? Can't find anything to activate/deactivate such behavior in the Mouse/Touchbar settings. Should this be reported as a bug?

Thanks!

In mouse & touchpad settings (the touchpad sub-tab) uncheck "disable touchpad while typing"..
