Often with these 100% X cpu bugs, the problem is caused by a client application, which is stuck in a loop making X requests. In such cases, the debugging procedure is to examine your process table (e.g. `ps aux`) and start killing processes one by one until the system unfreezes.
However, the fact that this occurs on resume makes this bug sound a bit different. It can't hurt to try the above, and it might turn up something (I'd probably test killing gnome-settings-daemon, compiz/unity and some of the other gnome infrastructural bits first). If all that fails, you can connect to the running X process using gdb and gather a series of backtraces to see what series of routines it is hitting. strace can be used here too, although with the X server it produces so much output it's often unusable for diagnostics. ** Changed in: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/968265 Title: Resuming from sleep leaves Xorg using 100% CPU and unable to turn on the screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/968265/+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
