I was running my laptop w/ the xorg.conf generated by s-c-display and 
downloading upgrades, letting the screensavers kick in when not actually 
at the computer. Later, the mouse did not seem to do anything with 
either the touchpad tapping, scrolling or with the mechanical buttons. 
The cursor moved wherever running the finger over the pad area. Changing 
  to the console revealed this error repeatadly within the xorg.0.log on 
this session. Pasted error below from log. Full log available if 
bugzilla entry needed.

Though it appeared X was frozen, I was able to change to a terminal. 
This error was also displayed on the terminal startx was launched from.

I use acpi and not apm. I can only boot using acpi.
