I really don't understand, how such a grave bug can go unfixed for such
a long time, and is even marked as low. I have this problem since at
least 4 versions of Ubuntu (kubuntu), and was hoping for a fix after
each upgrade. Unfortunately in vain.
My xorg currently uses up
7142 root 20 0 1835m 1.3g 8416 S 8 44.1 537:48.47 Xorg
after 8 days of uptime (that's 1,3Gig, and it continues to grow until the
machine becomes unusable because of swapping). Only solution: Reboot (WinXP
sends his best regards).
xrestop shows:
xrestop - Display: :0
Monitoring 39 clients. XErrors: 3
Pixmaps: 141213K total, Other: 1856K total, All: 143070K total
My graphics card has 128MB (GeForce FX 5200), and I use Xinerama (2 monitors)
with the nvidia driver.
ii nvidia-glx-new 169.12+2.6.24.15-23.55
NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org 'new' driver
ii nvidia-kernel-common 20051028+1ubuntu8
NVIDIA binary kernel module common files
Otherwise I'm still running stock kubuntu 8.04.

I'd really appreciate, if some effort were put in fixing this painful
bug.
Cheers,
Roland
