Hello,
I have 10.04 installed on my Laptop (Dell Latitude D630 with the Nvidia video upgrade). This was a clean install to a hard drive that I let it totally erase and use as it saw fit. I am using the Nvidia driver marked as "current" in the hardware driver settings.
When my laptop screen dims due to inactivity, such as not used for 5 mins or so, it will prompt me for a password to log back in. No big deal. However, when it resumes from this state it is SLOW!! I go to system monitor and see that the process "Compiz" is burning up both of my cores at about 70% or HIGHER. It's not using a significant amount of memory which is strange.
From what I have been able to gather Compiz has some responsibilty for the GUI and killing the process to attempt to restart it is a "bad idea" (tried that lol).
This also occurs when the laptop hibernates.
I see that there are various posts referencing hibernate/suspend issues but, I am still getting my feet wet with some of the terminology here so some of them hurt my brain. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
iGmO
