Strange, but I can add further verification of this bug... With superkaramba loaded, Xorg would ramp up to 100% usage over 30 minutes when my laptop was left to idle. 15 minutes after it reach top speed it the system would crash if I did anything except kill Xorg. I hadn't experienced this before upgrading to Feisty, and was experiencing it thereafter. I was sure I must have had something mis-configured (I had made a lot of video and screen related changes to play with dual head operation, my HDTV just prior to the upgrade). After endless debugging I gave up trying to solve the issue, and reported it under bug 51991 because it resembled everything I could debug. Even top wasn't showing superkaramba as eating up the CPU cycles, just Xorg. After reading this bug report, I decided to try unloading superkarama, and low and behold, the problem has completely disappeared. Thanks for the reporting, I never would have thought of this - hope this bug can be fixed!!
