With high X CPU bugs, *typically* the cause ends up being a client program rather than X. The reason is that X is just a server and its load is driven by client requests. So if some client is stuck in a loop making X calls, that can show up as high CPU on the X process.
However, with nvidia who knows. It's rare but not unknown for there to be driver bugs that cause high CPU on X. As a general rule, with bugs against nvidia, unless it's a packaging issue or something that quite definitely is wrong on the Ubuntu side, or something you already know is fixed in a newer driver version, the bugs should be reported upstream at the nvidia forums. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/973506 Title: Huge processor's loading by Xorg process when nvidia proprietary drivers installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/973506/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
