** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: xorg
- 
  Ubuntu Karmic beta (all updates installed), MacBook rev3 (early 2008)
  
- On a system that has been upgraded from Ubuntu 9.04 to Karmic beta, Xorg constantly uses near-100% CPU. This is typical top output:
-   PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND

  A clean installation of Ubuntu Karmic on the same machine does not have
  the same problem, but the problem should never happen regardless.
  
  This is not bug 345224, because it did not happen with 9.04, and Xorg never freezes.
  It probably isn't bug 379780, because it did not happen with 9.04.
  It isn't bug 439138, because it happens after every login.
  And it isn't bug 293637, because it happens regardless of theme.
