check if you have the ‘synaptiks’ utility installed and running.
It offers a feature that acts exactly like what you discribe. The purpose
is to prevent acidential cursor movements while typing, which is extremely
annoying. It depends on how you hold your hands and on the construction of
the laptop body if this is a problem for you.
If ‘synaptiks’ is the cause you can disable or reconfigure that feature in
the settings.

good luck
