  Ubuntu 9.10 fully updated
  
- xorg-server 2:1.6.4-2ubuntu4
+ xorg-server 2:1.6.4-2ubuntu4 with ATI Radeon Xpress 200M
  
  I've got 30% Xorg CPU usage when i'm watching 720p videos in VLC and in
  MPlayer too (I think its unrelated to media players because i tried all
  kind of video output and the problem remained) . Because of this, 720p
  videos are unwatchable while under a different OS the same video runs
  smoothly.

  I've got 30% Xorg CPU usage when i'm watching 720p videos in VLC and in
  MPlayer too (I think its unrelated to media players because i tried all
  kind of video output and the problem remained) . Because of this, 720p
- videos are unwatchable (when VLC uses 80% CPU ,Xorg CPU usage drops to
- 20% and the video gets stuck until the video bitrate lowers --> VLC CPU
- usage drops under 70%) while under a different OS the same video runs
- smoothly.
