|
|
Hey guys, today my PC has a weird behavior: I turn it on and everything is normal but then I type startx as usual and my computer freezes immediately or after a few minutes. I can log in by say with my mobile and running top it shows that X ran by Root (I didn't do startx as root) is taking up 100% CPU and I'm kind of lost on what to do. I haven't changed anything at all, I'm running gnome and Nvidia card but again haven't changed anything at all.

Xorg by default is runned by root (here a guide for run X by normal user).
You should look in ~/.xsession-errors or dmesg for see if any error has happens _________________ Questions are guaranteed in life; Answers aren't. |

Even tho I' ve been in Gentoo for such a long time and that I'm a programmer and what u would call an "advanced user" I still learn basic things about my system every day, I really didn't know about that from Xorg. I did find an error in the log but I couldn't make much sense of it, it actually seemed like a physical problem (of the graphics card) but I don't think it is, maybe you can make more sense of it:

What graphics card model and what nvidia-drivers version you have? _________________ Questions are guaranteed in life; Answers aren't. |
