Hello,
I have Kubuntu 11.04 on my HP machine, there is a Core 2 Duo 2.00 GHz
with a nVidia 9500 GT 1GB. I use the official nVidia driver which gives
good performance for KWin and OpenGL.
Sometimes, when I resize a window, Xorg starts to burn up 100% of the
CPU time and the computer is frozen. I can only access it via SSH and
that is very slow.
I can `sudo killall -9 xorg`, but then I loose all my data. What can I
do to recover from those freezes without loosing my data in open
applications?
What log files can I post for you to be able to diagnose the problem
better?
Regards,
Martin
