    Typing Behaviour: Cursor goes back about 12 or 17 characters after pressing space

    I'm having a typing behavior issue; the cursor goes back about 12 or 17 characters after pressing space. It just happened as I was typing this post, and it went back a few characters. Could it be because I'm using google chrome? Though, it also happens when using gedit.I have not done any troubleshooting yet besides updating chrome.

    Any chance you are also touching the touchpad when you hit space?

    Hi There,

    I believe I am not touching the touchpad I actually just for purposes of testing I completely disabled it
