I have intermittently seen this problem happen for quite a while, a
bisect will probably not help you. The "incomplete data package" message
doesn't actually seem to be related to the fact that suspend/resume
sometimes breaks the touchpad though, it seems to happen, for example,
when you switch from X to a console and back, something must be bad with
the timing, possibly even in the hardware.
