Subject: First impression on 14.10

Hi

I installed ubuntu-desktop-mir on 14.10 to test out mir. I use the radeon
drivers.
First impression is that it's smoother. Switching workspacess is smooth,
even with the workload that usually caused gitter before.
Only issue I found was that Xorg always has around 100% CPU use. This
causes my laptop to become hot (until 80°C), throttles a lot and draw allot
of power. Is this a known issue? Can I test something. As I'd like to keep
using mir as it's working better.

Thanks a lot for trying. I wasn't aware of the Xorg issue you've
experienced.

We are in the process of releasing the next version. It'd be great if you
could test it once it comes out. Or you could pick up our development
branch (lp:mir) and test that. There are instructions on our wiki page (
http://unity.ubuntu.com/mir/) on how to get the code and build. Mir
developers hang out at #ubuntu-mir channel on freenode IRC where you can
ask questions.
