Okey dokey! I placed acpi=force in /boot/grub/menu.lst and the problem has gone away. Prior to placing that on the kernel options line I had only 1 reference to acpi in /var/log/boot.msg and that had to do with the BIOS failing the cutoff date.
Now every thing works fine, but I have many references to acpi in the boot.msg file. But they are in notices about various things being initialized and those items are referencing the kernel boot line. Now, for the most inquiring minds, mouse jerky is quite tasty, but you do have to eat quite a bit more to be fully sated.
