[Bug 681465] Re: nvidia-current - Video has horizontal lines on Nvidia GeForce 320M

 

Chatted with Alberto Milone. Here is what we tried.
1) sync to vblank is on (nvidia-settings)
2) XVideoSyncToDisplay is on (nvidia-settings)
OpenGL settings is set to sync to vblank
X server Xvideo settings is set to sync to vblank (XVideoSyncToDisplay is just another name for the option in X server Xvideo settings)

3) make sure that sync to vblank is enabled in compiz in gconf
4) make sure that unredirect_fullscreen_windows is enabled in compiz in gconf (so that you don't experience tearing in full screen videos)

gconf key is /apps/compiz/general/screen0/options/
Values enabled: unredirect_fullscreen_windows and sync_to_vblank

After testing this there are still lines, even in full screen. (Mouse was not in motion when in full screen)
Using Gnome Desktop 10.10 clean install. It's a bug in the linux driver, because sync to vblank is broken in nvidia with this card while nouveau doesn't support sync to vblank.
