Every Thinkpad I've ever had (I think 6 at last count!) would drift
sometimes. As I recall, the recommendation is to let it drift to the
corner/side and it will correct itself (this was undoubtedly some time ago
that I read that). My 755CX does it occationally, but letting it drift to
the edge of the screen seems to allow it to correct itself.
Of course, YMMV.
