You can read a little bit about my quest to get my computer back to
normal on here
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11920008#post11920008
After upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 Unity 3D was unusable and slow. I
managed to get it fixed by deleting ~/.config however after a couple of
minutes my computer freezes and the only way to get it back is using the
reset button. I can SSH from another computer and see Xorg is taking
100% of the CPU.
It seems Gnome Shell is not affected. The problem only happens in Unity
3D.
