Two Xorg processes

[resin]

Hi, I recently installed the Tribe 3 AMD64 version, then installed all updates as well as the fglrx xorg driver. Afterwards, I noticed that I have two Xorg processes running:

rob@rob-laptop:~$ ps aux | grep X
root   4972 1.5 3.7 116088 33828 tty7   SLs+ 21:24  0:20 /usr/bin/X -br -nolisten tcp :0 vt7 -auth /var/run/xauth/A:0-z1cDY8
root   5205 0.0 3.7 116088 33828 tty7   SL+ 21:24  0:00 /usr/bin/X -br -nolisten tcp :0 vt7 -auth /var/run/xauth/A:0-z1cDY8
rob    5759 0.0 0.0  5072  824 pts/1  S+  21:47  0:00 grep X

I thought it was kdm related, so I stopped kdm and used startx to start kde, but the same problem existed.

top shows the processes like this:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
4972 root 15 0 130m 36m 8880 S 2 4.2 0:25.33 Xorg
5205 root 19 0 130m 36m 8880 S 0 4.2 0:00.00 Xorg

If I kill the process with TIME+ as 0:00.00, it will say <DEFUNCT> but X won't quit. If I kill the other one, X does quit. This leads me to believe that the second process is bogus, but I don't know at what point it's being executed. Any ideas?

Re: Two Xorg processes

Well, I changed my xorg.conf to use the radeon driver instead of fglrx, rebooted and sure enough, the second Xorg process disappeared. How could a video card driver execute another Xorg process? It doesn't make sense to me. The worst part is, the proprietary driver is my only choice for 3d acceleration for my video card (Radeon Xpress 200M).
