Public bug reported:

I have a Dell Inspiron 1420 Laptop.  It has a touch pad but I often
attach a "Logitech Click! Optical Mouse".  When the mouse is attached
the laptop will never turn of its screen.   The screen will stay
constantly lit,  even for days on end.   When i disconnect the mouse the
screen will go black as by default.

I did some investigation and i built this crosshair.cpp application here:
http://www.unix.com/unix-linux-applications/81388-read-position-mouse-cursor.html

I was thinking that maybe if my mouse is attached that the cursor would
osculate endlessly  keeping the machine from gong to sleep.  However
this is not the case,  the chordates stay constant,  however they are
displayed as full integers.  Is it possible that chordates could be a
float and that it is too sensitive?

Thanks,
Michael Brooks
