@eZFlow: That option didn't help me (QuadroFX 570M). I still get definite tearing. Going without compositing seems to be the only solution. It's gotten better and and worse between versions, but tearing is at an all-time worst in 11.10.
I'd agree with the poster above that Mutter does not have this problem, and it's plainly obvious (in it's absence) in Fedora 15. If I play the attached sample movie it's perfectly smooth in F15, but tears like mad in 11.10. ** Attachment added: "Sample video to demonstrate tearing" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-workspace/+bug/600178/+attachment/2580442/+files/tearingtest.mp4 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/600178 Title: Screen tearing when dragging window, in videos and other large screen redraws (on nVidia GPU) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/600178/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
