--- Begin Message ---Package: linux-image-2.6.25-2-686 Version: 2.6.25-7 When Linux 2.6.25 has been running for a while (say, several hours) xorg starts to respond more slowly and sporadically. Everythin seems okay for a while after boot, or at least the effects are less noticable. This is on a Dell laptop with a Core Duo CPU (not Core 2). Just typing in an xterm right now I frequently get several characters ahead of the display before it catches up. Logging into a vt instead seems okay, so I guess it's just X that is affected. System load average seems higher than it should be also. kmsha...@kulgan:~$ uptime 06:40:35 up 12:53, 8 users, load average: 0.88, 0.93, 0.93 And this is what top is showing for me, no obvious CPU hogs or io wait to cause that load: top - 06:41:30 up 12:54, 8 users, load average: 0.70, 0.87, 0.91 Tasks: 136 total, 1 running, 135 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 1.6%us, 1.6%sy, 0.0%ni, 96.7%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st Mem: 1546824k total, 749328k used, 797496k free, 83024k buffers Swap: 2097144k total, 0k used, 2097144k free, 285324k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 3511 root 20 0 410m 63m 9064 S 1 4.2 4:36.25 Xorg 1124 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:28.88 kcryptd 3864 kmshanah 20 0 47424 16m 8828 S 0 1.1 0:05.34 gnome-settings- 3918 kmshanah 20 0 23040 10m 8056 S 0 0.7 0:26.90 nm-applet 1 root 20 0 2100 720 620 S 0 0.0 0:02.02 init This behaviour doesn't happen on 2.6.24. For my day-to-day work I've gone back to using linux-image-2.6.24-1-686 (2.6.24-6) with no problems. Apologies for the fairly vague bug report, but I'm at a bit of a loss as to whan information to provide to assist. Regards, Kevin.
