Turn off your X screen saver.  You don't need an X screen saver going
when your Windows screen saver is doing its job.

I've found that when the Windows screen saver is on, or I lock my screen
using win-L, and I have an X application running that is drawing to the
screen that my log will get filled with these messages.  The X
screensaver is typically the culprit as it is very busy drawing stuff.

I have reported this problem here before, but it still persists (and I
haven't done anything to fix it myself, shame on me :-)
