Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
I'm using Kubuntu 6.10. I have the nvidia binary drivers ver nº 9631 installed and my xorg.conf is almost standard, configured using only this command:
sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-
The problem is that Xorg consumes more and more memory as I use the computer. After 1 ~ 2 Hours of use, xorg is using 150 ~ 250 MB of swapped memory, and about 100 MB of RAM, and if I continue to using the computer xorg just grows and grows. As my system only has 512 MB of RAM, after a few minutes of use I end with 15 ~ 20 MB of free RAM..
There are some reports from other users with the exact same problem, some of them using ATI cards (so, I suppose this is not a driver issue), as you can check here:

PS: sorry the bad English.
Hi,
Did you check with xrestop if an application is leaking X resource?
