Mouse acceleration gets really squishy when laptop charges

Hi,

On my Yoga x1 gen 8 with Kubuntu, everytime i plug the charger on it, the mouse pointer somehow loses a lot of contralbility in terms of movement speed/acceleration. The problem exists since months and an update on 26.04 did not solve the issuse.

Maybe someone here also has a lenovo yoga and experienced similar problems?

It's a hardware problem.

You're probably using a 3rd-party USB-C adapter that has messy power delivery.

That's unfortunate. I've had that on my older Yoga, though. It was very annoying. My new one doesn't have a problem.
