For those interested - while I was having this issue on 10.04 (before backing down to 9.1) I did disable acpi by booting with acpi=off. That did nothing and the xorg process still took over with 100% after varying amounts of time.
I had also disabled any compiz effects (which I have to do anyway because you can't vnc into the system *witth* compiz) and the screensaver. -- Ubuntu 10.04 random freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585765 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
