Does this happen all the time, or only when using certain tools?  If
the problem affects, for instance, making rectangular selections
/and/ using the paintbrush tool, I can't guess what causes that.
But if it /only/ affects the paintbrush, clone, and similar tools it
is possible that "Apply jitter" is turned on:  This brush dynamics
settings make the affected tools work 'almost as if they are
vibrating.'  This setting will be found in the Tool Options tab in
your dock window; un-check the option and it will quit doing that.

IF that is the problem, "no problem."  If that is not the problem, I
am all out of ideas.
