Yes it is normal. 2-3% Xorg, 2-3% Hildon


I have no Idea why your N900 feels slow. Sorry

gday all - first post and all that.........

for n00bs such as myself, you need to have rootsh and midnightcommander installed. ;)

thanks guys I also had this issue after installing advanced power app and luckily people on here are well on top of the situation.

Re: Xorg running constatntly at 95-97% of cpu
 
So last night I was playing around with the advanced-power-monitor, trying to get it to work, and while I had uninstalled the package, and rebooted, I had left my phone charging all night, went into work, and 2 and a half hours into the day, my phone gives that whimpering beep of a low battery. I was thinking "wtf?" So I looked and sure enough, it was this issue with Xorg being at 95% and more.

The cleanest solution is to open xterm and type
Code:

sudo dpkg -P advanced-power-monitor
That should purge all files from the advanced-power-monitor.

If you still have advanced-power, you may want to run it on that as well.

The -P option is to purge all extra files. For some reason the post remove script isn't removing the /etc/event.d/apmonitord. Purge does though.

I did have to reboot afterward as well.

FIXED.

Manually remove /etc/event.d/apmonitord and reboot / kill the xserver.

The project bugtracker is broken, so...

works for me too.

Then type:
sudo gainroot

THEN type:

dpkg -P advanced-power-monitor


you should only use sudo if you actually (as root) added the "user" username to the /etc/sudoers file.

Ok, now Xorg is jumping between 70 and 96%.
