>From what I can see, on bootup its starting a metacity process, and calling anything with --replace isnt removing that original metacity process. Killing the plain metacity process fixes it for me every time.
For instance, if I boot with no compiz and change metacity to use compositing via gconf-editor, it starts a new metacity --replace process but leaves the old one there and I get 100% cpu usage with 10% cpu usage in gconfd-2 being the highest visible thing. robert 3813 2.9 0.7 21488 11092 ?

The same thing happens when I use compiz --replace. -- Process gconfd-2 causes cpu overuse and overheat https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390733 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
