CPU AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4400+ Kernel 2.6.38-7.dmz.1-liquorix-amd64 X server version: X.Org X Server 1.9.0 OpenGL direct rendering: Yes OpenGL vendor: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL renderer: GeForce 8400 GS/PCI/SSE2 OpenGL version: 3.3.0 NVIDIA 270.41.06 GCC version: 4.4.5 Java version: 1.6.0_20 Python version: 2.6.6 GTK version: 2.22.0 PyGTK version: 2.21.0 Firefox version: Mozilla Firefox 5.0 Ubuntu version: 10.10 GNOME version: 2.32.0

The issue is, the Xorg process always seems to be active with over 6% CPU and +50MB RAM usage, which in turn keeps the fans blowing all the time.
