[Bug 874963] [NEW] Screen freezing or gets black, xorg consume lot of cpu

 

Public bug reported:

After I upgraded to ubuntu 11.04 I got problem with xorg. 
Before the upgrade I had never problem with the graphic cart.
The proprietary driver of my graphic cart (GeForce 8400GS) is activated but not in use.
The screen freeze or went black more often when I watch a video.
I have to make a cold start to get the pc running again.
