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.
