Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor
Just opening system monitor (not sure if it's always) causes one of my
CPUs to go to 100% usage. The process Xorg is the one that actually has
all the CPU usage but I guess it must be system-monitors fault.
$ cat /etc/lsb-release

I tried to find out what was going on and started a strace on the Xorg
process and that completely locked upp my system. Tried to switch to a
console with ctrl-alt-f1 but no success. Remotely connected to the
system with SSH and found that the CPU usage was good and as soon as I
killed -9 the strace process the system was OK again.
