I have the same problem on open-source radeon driver with dri rendering working ok, Ubuntu 10.10. So it seems like this bug doesn't depend on video driver used (nvidia used by original reporter, radeon is on mine machine).
F.e. on page: http://news.tut.by/tv/217001.html I get 60-70% CPU load (Core 2 Duo P8600 @ 2.40GHz) and high fan activity and quite hot laptop surface. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/703301 Title: npviewer.bin uses too much cpu -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
