Ok, I know this has been marked as "invalid" (and to tell you the truth, I was a little mad that it was) but I think I figured it out.
I installed the nouveau drivers, disabled the proprietary ones, and enabled the nouveau drivers with "experimental 3D support". Compiz is working just fine. I'd recommend if someone is using Natty, has an nVidia graphics card, and is having the same issue as I was, to please install the nouveau drivers, enable them, and see if that fixes it. It fixed it for me. ** Attachment added: "my xorg log file (before installation of nouveau drivers)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/751477/+attachment/1988786/+files/Xorg.0.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/751477 Title: Xorg uses excessive CPU -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
