Description of problem: When the X server starts up, opening up firefox or any other window and dragging it around rapidly and intsensively with the mouth is smooth and doesn't burn up lots of CPU. But I find that after some use, perhaps some situations, that I haven't yet been able to identify, that the X server becomes much slower and the smooth dragging of windows is lost, and all graphics operations become CPU intensive such that you can drive the CPU up to 100% by using any of them. Once this happens, the only way I know to get out of it is to restart the X server. The video chipset is ATI Mobility Radeon 9700. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Intermittent Actual results: X Server intermittently becomes slow with scrolling operations Expected results: X Server stays fast Additional info: I will attach xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log
Created attachment 184401 [details] xorg.conf file
Created attachment 184421 [details] Xorg.0.log file from X server when this problem did happen
The driver I'm using is the radeon driver, and I'm running the latest 2.6.22.4-65.fc7 kernel, but this problem showed on previous f7 kernels too.
Not seeing this in f8
