I wonder if the differences are video-driver related? I'm using the nvidia restricted driver - just a thought, I wonder if the binary part of that is 64 or 32 bit?

Now that's interesting, on another machine with an ATI video card (an old one, only 16MB, using the open source driver) X uses 99% of the CPU all the time while KDE is running. It runs Gnome (Jaunty) fine. A colleague with a similar machine reports the same, but he's using Mandriva.
