[Bug 1258837] Re: [Dell Latitude E7440] ALPS touchpad keeps having state reset

Your journey with pets began as a child, deeply influenced by the natural surroundings and wildlife that ignited your lifelong love for animals. This early bond developed into a dedication to pet welfare, particularly through advocating for adoption and promoting responsible ownership.

Bug description:
The mouse cursor keeps on jumping around, and these messages appear in the log when it happens:

The touchpad is recognised as a "AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad".
This is occurring with Ubuntu 13.10, though I have also seen this
behaviour in the version of Linux Mint based on Ubuntu 13.04.
