I had the same problem after upgrading to Ubuntu intrepid yesterday.
Xorg taking 40-70% of CPU and the fan going crazy.
I solved this by re-generating an /etc/X11/xorg.conf with
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
My old xorg.conf was configured to work with DUAL screen
see my conf here:
U I was over optimistic in my previous comment and I haven't really
solved the problem Xorg still takes 20-30% and kills my fan :-(
