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?
I did have that problem until about 1-2 weeks ago, but no more. nvidia GF106 (GeForce GTS 450) 4.6.0 NVidia 390.129 I did not on intel graphics systems but do now since the last few days. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
