Screen flickering, Keyboard lightning, touchpad problems - Dell XPS 13 9350


Hello, community I'm facing several problems since I installed ubuntu on my new Laptop and I really do hope that I can fix them with your help.

1) My screen does randomly flicker
2) When I turn my keyboard lightning off it will automatically turn itself back on after a few seconds.
3) When I use the touchpad and want to click on something it happens that the courser will jump in the bottom left corner and opens the trash.

I've updated the latest bio and searched already in many forums or wikis, but the solutions didn't work for me, or maybe I did something wrong cause of lack of experience with Linux.

I already thank everyone who sacrifices his time to help me solve the problems.

For your touchpad problem, try
System Settings => Input Devices => Touchpad => Taps
then change the drop list after 'One finger' to 'No action'.

If that doesn't work, try clicking on the Sensitivity tab and changing the settings, or changing the Corners settings on the Taps tab.
