On my Ubuntu 14.04, I have installed compiz. It was working perfectly until this morning.
top says compiz and cgmanager are eating up cpu more than 150%.



From this SO post I checked, if anything was updated, I noticed cgmanager was installed last.
This answer helped lower cpu usage by compiz but still after 5 minutes or so it goes high again.



My virtual consoles (ttyn) work fine, something is wrong with my GUI only and I don't seem to find the right steps to fix this.



Thank you all in advance.
