Recent problem: Brush stroke gets "jerky" (not pixelated) / Uneven stroke!

I'm not entirely sure when this began, maybe the most recent photoshop update, or the one before that?

When I draw with the brush tool in photoshop, the lines become really jerky and ugly - like my hand was shaking like crazy, which I'm pretty sure it isn't. See picture below as example (zoom to see better):

And here's the actual psd-file.

The file has a large dpi, so it isn't pixelation. The spacing of the brush is also 1% so that shouldn't be the problem. Some of my illustrations from fall do not have this jerky line:

And the psd-file for this.

Also I notice that it gets jerkier when I draw in 15% size-mode versus 100% size-mode.

I hope someone can help me fix this.

It seems I solved it by either updating my cintiq driver or resetting photoshop to "factory" settings.

Have you got the Size Jitter turned on and up in the Shape Dynamics?

No everything is set to 0% in shape dynamics.
