Bug Description
Steps to reproduce:
1.) Type a few key strokes.
2.) Try to move the cursor using the touchpad.
Expected result:
Cursor moves immediately
Actual result:
Cursor sticks for several seconds
This could very well be strongly linked to the hardware used (Samsung N310, using the touchpad, not a mouse), so let's see if anyone else can reproduce.

Thanks for your report.
Confirmed in Oneiric. The workaround is to disable 'Disable Touchpad while typing' in the touchpad preferences (run 'gnome- control- center mouse', and select tab 'Touchpad' )
