Cursor ghostly jumps with touchscreen in 11.10

I think this is related to xserver somehow, but when I'm using paint programs like Gimp or Inkscape in 11.10 with either the pen or touch inputs, occasionally the cursor will just jump to the edge of the screen, ruining the whole line, and making drawing impossible.

How do I troubleshoot this?

Some things that might be relevant?

This particular jumping problem disappeared on update to 12.04. (I have new problems with the touch screen averaging inputs between cursor and touch, of course, but the original problem is solved, somehow.)
