I also get tearing with Compiz turned off. Nvidia ION, Driver version 190.53, Ubuntu 9.10.
The only way I have got tearing to go away is add a section to xorg.conf to disable compositing. I have tried something similar to Murky's solution without success. I didn't follow his instructions exactly though, so I might give that a whirl and will let you know if I have any success. -- compiz+nvidia: tearing in xvideo (totem/mplayer/VLC/XINE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151674 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
