This is interesting... I upgraded Xorg first but left fglrx alone, and
the memory leak is MUCH less significant. I randomly had to restart
compiz after running up the memory watching full screen video, and it
reset the memory to what it had been when I first booted the computer!
So, for me, on a SO

Installing the ATI driver (from their site) fixes the Xorg memory leak.
Not entirely though, Xorg will still leak over time, just not as severe.
When upgrading, make sure you remove the previous version completely and
all configuration files in /etc/ati from the previous version or the
memory leaks

Well i wasn't experiencing any lags. But what i notice is the fact that
my monitor now turns off without a problem when set. I also notice some

Please try if this happens to you too:
- when memory grows up, open system manager;
- press CTRL+ALT+L to lock the session, then enter your password;
- back on the desktop, check system manager.
On my system, it shows that ~200MBs of memory is instantly freed.

I confirm this on my Lenovo T400, ATI mobility radeon 3400 series,

You must have missed a step to kill xorg and stop xserver from loading.

I did the same as Aisthesis and my xorg died - could not even boot up
properly. I removed the drivers, still could not boot up properly :(
I was wondering if I should wait or move on from compiz. I am using an ATI
card too.
If this is an X problem, anybody has any idea who long we have to wait?
I had the same problem with an up to date Ubuntu Jaunty and a ATI Radeon HD
3870.
I did the same as Aisthesis above and downloaded the 9.4 driver from the
ati.amd.com website and installed that and it's been much better. I no
longer need to reboot everyday. (uptime 4 days)

The problem is not Linux, Ubuntu, Compiz or your video card.
I looked at www.x.org's bug reports and was directed to bugzilla.
Sorry. Forgot to C&P the link.
This is a regression from an earlier Xorg bug. It was recently
reopened.
