[Bug 44912] Re: Default desktop is too cpu hungry when idle.
I am a debian etch user and would like to report here that the Xorg CPU excesive use is observed in both Gnome and KDE, but the problem is worst in the last desktop. Xorg uses up to 100% CPU. My Xorg version is 7.2. People in some forums have reported that this bug is still present in Xorg 7.3+10 (Debian Lenny). Wow, this bug was reported since 2006.

The original bug is out of date.

Xorg goes to 35% cpu usage when I open System Monitor in Hardy Beta. I didn't test with many other applications, but with most it seems Xorg's cpu usage is between 1% and 5%.

Yep, just tried the hardy alpha, seems fine on my hardware now.

Hi Everyone, The Hardy Heron Alpha series is currently under development and contains an updated version of the kernel. It would be helpful if you could test the latest Hardy Alpha release: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . You should be able to then test the new kernel via the LiveCD. If you can, please verify if this bug still exists or not and report back your results.

Konrad: disable tracker to see if it helps.

Re: [Bug 44912] Re: Default desktop is too cpu hungry when idle.
its definitely not tracker - it could coincide with firefox though. top shows xorg and firefox are using considerable cpu time while being idle.

Cannot confirm this on Fujitsu-Siemens AMILO M7400 with 1.3 GHz Celeron. Xorg never gets over 2% when idle.

try doing this: echo 1 /sys/module/processor/parameters/max_cstate Does it solve your problem? I have the same problem with my laptop (Dell M70). Even writing in the gnome-terminal has some strange lag before changing max_cstate.

I am experiencing this also on my Pentium M / Radeon x300 laptop.
