gregrwm, in order to help you, please review all of the following, and answer all questions:
1) Regarding all the reports you mentioned, they are useless as they don't contain useful information to root cause and solve. Hence, it is most helpful if you keep focus on this one report, versus making new reports, or constantly referencing others. 2) Please don't apport-collect or attach more apport-collect files. 3) Regarding the Bug Description, is this consistently reproducible using your steps? 4) Regarding the Bug Description, how long does it take from "maximized the xterm running tmux" to your GUI stops responding, seconds, minutes, etc.? 5) Immediately after logging in, without doing anything else what is the idle CPU utilization (htop results)? 6) After reproducing the problem, if you SSH in and kill processes, which processes do you have to kill until your GUI begins to be responsive again? ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Description changed: + The problem is that my GUI stops responding after launching a few + applications, and is correlated to high CPU utilization of xorg. + + An example reproduction scenario: launched startx, launched an xterm via twm, launched another xterm via the first, launched tmux, launched firefox-esr, bluetooth-manager, and pavucontrol, maximized the xterm running tmux xorg stopped responding, ctl-alt-Fn don't respond either - logged in via ssh, attached to tmux, launched htop, copied htop output, in which you can see xorg consuming lots of cpu. - noticed twm no longer running - launched ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg - answered its question re display manager log files - i left it printing endless periods for over an hour - - killed xorg - launched startx again - started a second ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg - answered its questions re display manager log files and additional debugging work - - noticed the first ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg is no longer printing periods - answered its questions re additional debugging work and Send problem report - - attached copy of htop output + logged in via ssh, attached to tmux, launched htop, copied htop output, + in which you can see xorg consuming lots of cpu.
