Hi all I upgraded kernel, world and ports from ~7.1 RELEASE to RELENG_7 of yesterday, and now Xorg constantly chews CPU. I'm running: FreeBSD jacob.nubtek.com 7.2-STABLE FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #2: Thu May 14 20:37:49 BST 2009 root@jacob.nubtek.com:/usr/obj/usr/data/FreeBSD/RELENG_7/src/sys/LOST i386 I've double checked that all ports are up to date, and was going to blame some bug in the nvidia binary driver, but it also exhibits it if I use the 'nv' or 'vesa' driver as well - I've not tested nouveau. The nvidia.ko module was loaded whilst running with nv and vesa, would that matter? I tried disabling any/all of the extensions (damage, composite etc - see xorg.conf for full list) but this had no effect. I also checked to see if there what difference there was between a full gnome session, just gdm, and just twm. There was no difference between a full gnome session and just gdm, it still used 100% CPU, but just running 'Xorg -config /etc/X11/xorg.conf', without running any wm at all, used virtually no CPU. I'm running hald and dbus. All relevant logs/conf files/pkg lists can be got at here [1]. Any hints/ideas, as the sound of my fan whirling constantly is driving me nuts! Please keep me cc'ed, I'm not on freebsd-gnome@ Cheers Tom [1] http://freebsd.nubtek.com/files/xorg/
