Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

When I run low on memory, say, 20k or so remaining, xorg locks up
(doesn't respond to input at all, incl mouse movements/capslock).   OK
that makes sense...but the problem is that once memory situation
improves (say, by me sshing from another computer to kill the process
that's taking up the memory, whether it be firefox, gnu electric, or
whathaveyou), xorg remains locked up, even if reniced to a more realtime
priority.  It remains at 0% cpu usage, too, even while the system is
idle and I am giving it input via mouse/touchscreen.

Unlike the other reports on the intel drivers, Xorg is not using a
disproportionate amount of memory -- the amount of memory used is fine,
it is just not adjusting to memory conditions on the system.

Ubuntu Karmic / evtouch touchscreen / intel drivers probably from below

(also apologies that the attachments that were supposed to go towards
this bug report went to the last one -- had i known it was going to
attach all that stuff I would have just used the launchpad interface :)
)
