I use trisquel about 2 weeks and very happy, but I found one small problem.
I have found recently in Trisquel, that time to time with random intervals happens mouse click, even if I don't touch the laptop and the mouse USB cable is plugged off. What might cause the problem? Maybe some problems with trackpad? I have no idea where I should start to track the problem. Any suggestions please.

Maybe some problems with trackpad?

That looks probable. Can you disable it with Fn+F[some number], use the USB mouse and see if random clicks still occur?

Fn+[key] didn't work. I started to search the web and found that in Mint and Ubuntu same problem appears.
I installed mate-power-manager and mystically Fn+[key] started to work and random clicks disappeared.

@Magic Banana thanks for tip.

Solved!

If you're using Trisquel's default desktop environment,
mate-power-manager should have already been installed as part of the
'trisquel' metapackage. If you run into any other problems, you might want
to install 'trisquel' to make sure you are missing any other desktop
components.

I am using Trisquel Mini with Openbox windows manager. So a lot of stuff which are in MATE isn't loaded for me as default.
Anyway everything works now fine. Ty!
