[Flechabus]

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome

My first Publication. Be Patiente.

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. K8M800/K8N800/K8N800A [S3 UniChrome Pro] (rev 01)

Have tunned up the xorg.conf

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
        Driver "openchrome"
         Option "AccelMethod" "exa"
           Option "ExaScratchSize" "8192"
  Option "MaxDRIMem" "16384"
  Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
  Option "XaaNoImageWriteRect"
  Option "ExaNoComposite" "true"
  Option "NoXVDMA" "true"
  Option "DRI" "true"
EndSection

With no use of any program CPU usage stays at 40%. With Amsn for example, it triggers to 97%.

> free -m
             total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 433 407 25 0 2 91

Have the vm.swappiness= 10.

Any idea to low down the CPU usage?

What is CPU usage, when you remove options from xorg.conf file?

Attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file.
