[Bug 1333743] Re: Glitches when scrolling, as if not the entire screen is redrawn simultaneously

 

Yes, it is still an issue. I get screen tearing when scrolling, panning
an image or whatching videos. It's probably just always there.

I'm afraid I'm not able to test a development release.

Title:
  Glitches when scrolling, as if not the entire screen is redrawn
  simultaneously

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Beginning after today's (2014-06-24) update of Ubuntu, scrolling (for
  example a web page) results in glitches, which look like as if not the
  entire screen (or window) is redrawn at the same time, so that the
  upper part of the screen might have scrolled farther than the lower
  part (or vice versa), and the glitch is the horisontal border between
  the two parts.

  It's most easily visible on diagonal stripes, so here is a test image:
