Public bug reported:

I start anki (a qt app) on an oneiric unity desktop and very soon the
laptop dies a swap death with xorg consuming all the memory. Starting
anki is a reliable way to trigger the problem since I have upgraded to
oneiric beta. It didn't happen with 11.04.

Laptop: Acer aspire 3810T, i915 graphics (Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07))
Anki package version: 1.2.8-1
xorg package version: 1:7.6+7ubuntu6

With the attached bug report I ran ubuntu-bug on xorg before it used all
the RAM.
