Public bug reported: Very difficult filing this report, as system almost unusable since latest CompizConfigSysMgr update.
Monitoring with TOP, Compiz hogs resources, at 100% or even 106%, sometimes relinquishing resources after 2 or 3 minutes lag. If Kill command for Compiz PID, then sometimes Compiz will recover, more likely, Compiz freezes whole system, requiring reboot e.g. from terminal. Lag in compiz confirmed using different software: LibreOffice 5, LibreOffice 6, Firefox Many complains about CompizConfig update on AskUbuntu: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1010634/ubuntu-16-04-compiz-uses-way-too-much-cpu https://askubuntu.com/questions/1006621/2-15-18-compiz-update-broke-unity https://askubuntu.com/questions/1010038/unity-top-bar-and-launcher-disappeared-feb-24-2018 Tried switch to LOWGFX mode, but problem with Compiz persists. Problem is worse for me since latest Compiz update, but as filed previously, I was getting similar behavior from Ubuntu LibreOffice 5, with previous version Compiz. running Ubuntu 16.04.04 64-bit Nvidia: GeForce 6150 all updates applied ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+13ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-116.140-generic 4.4.98 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-116-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: wl ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.15 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' Date: Wed Feb 28 10:56:14 2018 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: xenial DistroVariant: ubuntu DkmsStatus: bcmwl, 6.30.223.271+bdcom, 4.4.0-103-generic, x86_64: installed bcmwl, 6.30.223.271+bdcom, 4.4.0-104-generic, x86_64: installed bcmwl, 6.30.223.271+bdcom, 4.4.0-109-generic, x86_64: installed bcmwl, 6.30.223.271+bdcom, 4.4.0-112-generic, x86_64: installed bcmwl, 6.30.223.271+bdcom, 4.4.0-116-generic, x86_64: installed ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: NVIDIA Corporation C51 [GeForce Go 6150] [10de:0244] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Presario V6133CL [103c:30b7] InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-09-02 (544 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160719) Lsusb: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0c45:62c0 Microdia Sonix USB 2.0 Camera Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub MachineType: Hewlett-Packard HP Pavilion dv9000 (KB189UA#ABA) ProcEnviron: TERM=linux PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-116-generic root=UUID=cbb3b226-d5e3-4f5a-b017-90f3a2ac981e ro drm.debug=0xe vesafb.invalid=1 plymouth:debug nopat SourcePackage: xorg UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 11/22/2007 dmi.bios.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.bios.version: F.3D dmi.board.name: 30B9 dmi.board.vendor: Quanta dmi.board.version: 65.2B dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: Quanta dmi.chassis.version: N/A dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnHewlett-Packard:bvrF.3D:bd11/22/2007:svnHewlett-Packard:pnHPPaviliondv9000(KB189UA#ABA):pvrRev1:rvnQuanta:rn30B9:rvr65.2B:cvnQuanta:ct10:cvrN/A: dmi.product.name: HP Pavilion dv9000 (KB189UA#ABA) dmi.product.version: Rev 1 dmi.sys.vendor: Hewlett-Packard version.compiz: compiz 1:0.9.12.3+16.04.20171116-0ubuntu1 version.ia32-libs: ia32-libs N/A version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.83-1~16.04.1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 17.2.8-0ubuntu0~16.04.1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental: libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental N/A version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx 17.2.8-0ubuntu0~16.04.1 version.xserver-xorg-core: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.18.4-0ubuntu0.7 version.xserver-xorg-input-evdev: xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.10.1-1ubuntu2 version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:7.7.0-1 version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.917+git20160325-1ubuntu1.2 version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.12-1build2 xserver.bootTime: Wed Feb 28 09:26:06 2018 xserver.configfile: default xserver.errors: Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist, 0) Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist, 0) xserver.logfile: /var/log/Xorg.0.log xserver.version: 2:1.18.4-0ubuntu0.7 xserver.video_driver: nouveau ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug ubuntu xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1752377 Title: CompizConfig maxxing out 100% CPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1752377/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
