I'm pretty sure this is the problem I had.

I installed Lucid from scratch on a multi-boot system. (The upgrade from
Karmic botched).  Everything seemed perfectly fine except within half an
hour, sometimes in only a few minutes, the mouse would freeze.  My PS2
keyboard continued working fine, but nothing from the USB mouse.  I
tried plugging and unplugging and plugging in a different mouse but
nothing would happen.  There was still power to the USB but no response.

After some searching, I tried adding "acpi=off" to the grub boot
options.  Now it's working just fine.
