With the latest Tumbleweed updates, /usr/bin/X seems to use ~40% of my CPU, causing(?) the whole system to become quite unresponsive. More specifically, the system seems to freeze (very briefly) several times a second, making both mouse and keyboard input and video playback rather jerky.
I hadn’t updated Tumbleweed for about a week (before updating yesterday), so I’m not sure exactly which snapshot introduced the change. I didn’t find anything relevant on Bugzilla, and unfortunately, I had just deleted earlier snapshots, so I can’t do a rollback to debug further. But changing the graphics card driver from the proprietary NVIDIA driver to Nouveau fixed the problem (CPU use back to normal, i.e. about 2%, and the system is responsive). And then changing back to the NVIDIA driver again reintroduced the problem, so it might be caused by the latest NVIDIA drivers *or* something else related to graphics.
Have anybody else experienced this problem, or have some tips for debugging it?
A good start would be to mention the version of the evil drivers.. nvidia-gfxG04-kmp-default-390.132_k5.3.12_1 and nvidia-gfxG05-kmp- default-440.36_k5.3.12_1 does work here as expected. Sometimes it helps to just reinstall the driver package.
