[Bug 662383] [NEW] Using nouveau, x.org suddenly uses 100% cpu

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

While using kubuntu with nouveau (with or without libgl1-mesa-dri-
experimental installed), suddenly x.org starts to use 100% cpu and the
desktop freezes. i can still move the mousepointer, but not click
anymore.

Using the nvidia binary driver this does not happen.

I think the common thing i found with the "crashes" was that i was doing
some heavy IO operation. Once it was copying large amount of files, and
the other 2 times i was burning a dvd.

I hope this can get fixed. Kde with the binary drivers is really slow
after an hour (with nouveau it really flies!).

thank you for your time. If any information is needed, please ask, i can
use a CLI ;)
