Hmmm, I switched to console using CTRL-ALT-F1 while X is still running. Hence, 
the touchpad is still in use. Maybe this is caused by the radeon xorg driver. 
I'm using the following options:
       Identifier      "ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon R250 Lf [FireGL 9000]"
        Driver          "radeon"
        Option          "AGPMode" "4"
        Option          "EnablePageFlip" "on"
        Option          "DynamicClocks" "true"
        Option          "RenderAccel" "true"
        Option          "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
        Option          "RenderAccel"   "true"
        Option          "DepthBits" "24"
        Option          "CRT2Position" "Clone"

Since DynamicClocks is on the chip should use some of its power management 
features.
