the fix was probably this update
"gnome-desktop (1:2.26.0-0ubuntu2) jaunty; urgency=low
* debian/patches/101_output_props_events_use_cheap_call.patch:
- libgnome-desktop/gnome-rr.c:
+ Additional gboolean argument for screen_update() static
function so that TRUE means that the cheap call (with no
hardware probing) is called while FALSE means that the more
expensive one is used. This prevents the gnome-settings-
daemon from causing X.org to waste CPU cycles when
output properties are changed (LP: #339228).
