Description Daniele Frijia 2008-05-21 10:33:24 UTC

X and plasma are using 40-60% of cpu usage each (top output):
12709 cosmo     20   0 91912  37m  21m R   58  1.9  47:25.61 plasma
 5439 root      20   0  417m 100m 5880 S   50  5.0  80:50.76 X

Workspace effects of kde are disabled.

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     T7300  @ 2.00GHz

VGA: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller

I activated the 3d-support in sax2.

what infos do you need to find the problem? perhaps its a similar problem like #391799

Comment 1 Stefan Dirsch 2008-05-21 13:23:32 UTC

Yes, I think so.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 391799 ***

Comment 2 Stefan Dirsch 2008-05-29 01:01:57 UTC

reopen.

Comment 3 Stefan Dirsch 2008-05-29 01:03:50 UTC

This is no longer a duplicate of a NVIDIA driver bug. I think the issue here is that KDE4 enabled desktop effects by default. IIRC this has been fixed, so this is no longer done.

Comment 4 Daniele Frijia 2008-05-29 08:28:58 UTC

If you mean the "Arbeitsflächeneffekte": They are not active on the machine.

Comment 5 Stefan Dirsch 2008-05-29 08:39:26 UTC

Yes, "Arbeitsflächeneffekte" is probably the translation of "Desktop effects".

Comment 6 Daniele Frijia 2008-05-29 08:42:36 UTC

Hm...as they are not activated...should the bug not be reopened? the status is "RESOLVED FIXED"...

Comment 7 Stefan Dirsch 2008-05-29 13:56:18 UTC

I cannot reproduce this issue on a 965GM machine with openSUSE 11.0 RC1. 3D is enabled, desktop effects are not. plasma/X are both around 1% CPU load.

Comment 8 Daniele Frijia 2008-05-29 14:02:37 UTC

Can I send some infos? debugoutput, strace etc.?

Comment 9 Christian Hoffmann 2008-06-04 19:14:25 UTC

Got the same problem here on a laptop with ati graphics (driver radeon). CPU usage is around 60% for plasma and 25% for Xorg.
