Well, that is the release you reported a problem in... So, if you can't
find it, there's no problem. :) I'm assuming we're talking about .901-1.
  Try that.
OK obvoiously it should be 6.8.99.901-1 and yes the problem is there after a
reboot.
But i found an interesting thing. If i remove my .XWinrc it stops eating cpu.
even if the file is completely empty it eats cpu.

I can't reproduce this. I see no CPU eating behavior, not with the
.XWinrc below, nor with an empty one.

MENU systray {
         xterm  EXEC "xterm -display %display% -sb -sl 999"
         SEPARATOR
}
ROOTMENU systray


Yes I understand that. I have now "narrowed" it down a little. Not much but.... If i reboot the computer and starts new X it eats cpu. If i let the computer go to sleep and then wake it (with X running) it has stopped eating cpu. Restarting X after that no problem ...... I hope this gives somebody an idea because i dont have any.


Nope, no idea. :) Do ask again if you can narrow it down further. For example, try to disable things that otherwise run on start-up. Also, make sure you're not using a software firewall such as ZoneAlarm.
