I checked System Monitor to see if the frequency of my CPU increases without doing anything and saw that xorg
is always using 10-40% of the CPU even if it's not doing much of anything on the desktop or simply surfing the Internet. Is this normal? If not, how can I fix it?
I have:
- a Macbook white 4,1
- Core2 Duo running at 2.10 GHz
- GPU Intel GMA X3100
- 4GB of RAM
- Ubuntu 11.04
I am running Unity and I do not have many effects enabled. I have only activated Compiz animations, scale, desktop, some shadows...
