[Bug 51991] Re: Xorg process freezes, uses 100% of CPU. Can be killed by remote terminal.
I should add to what I wrote in the original bug report that I am using the 686 kernel, 2.6.15-25, but I had the problem with prior kernels in 6.06. For me, ctrl-alt-backspace does nothing. The only way to get my computer back, that I have found, is to login remotely, find the xorg process at 100% CPU, and kill it. I don't know whether sound works. -- Xorg process freezes, uses 100% of CPU.

[Bug 51991] Xorg process freezes, eats up 100% of CPU. Mouse still operates, but nothing else in session works. Can log in remotely, kill xorg process, and machine is useable.
Public bug reported: I am running Dapper on a Dell Inspiron 8200 with an Nvidia GE Force 2 graphics card, and using the nvidia driver. The system will lock randomly -- anywhere from one or twice a week to once or twice a day. When it locks, the following happens: - the Xorg process uses 100% of the cpu; - the mouse pointer still operates - nothing else in that session works -- no keyboard, no clicking, nothing. - machine is still accessible remotely. I can log in using, e.g., ssh or even nx - when I log in remotely, I can kill the xorg process, and regain control of the machine. I can log back in, and everything works fine - the logs don't seem to tell me what happened.
