Makes me sad too... so sad I'm going to try OSX for a month and possibly
move to that. Until NVIDIA gets their act together, I've tried the
following with various degrees of success:
My fix
-------
sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl
This works way better than any other solution for me, however xgl
doesn't work with all nvidia drivers (ok with the nvidia-glx-new 169.12
for me). XGL has some weird minor side-effects too, but mostly good for
me. 110fps versus 10fps with proper driver is an improvement!
Proper way
----------
VSYNC:
Appending the "Option "DynamicTwinView" "false"" to my xorg / device section, I
now get a muuuch smoother experience.
SHADOWS:
official driver
or
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia/libwfb.so.xserver-xorg-core
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so
OVERCLOCKING:
1) open /etc/modprobe.conf
2) add the lines:
options nvidia NVreg_RegistryDwords="PerfLevelSrc=0x2222"
OR options nvidia NVreg_RegistryDwords="PerfLevelSrc=0x3322"
options nvidia NVreg_Mobile=1
3) Reboot
PIXMAPCACHESIZE
Section "Screen"
........
Option "PixmapCacheSize" "200000"
........
EndSection
