[Bug 600178] Re: Screen tearing when dragging window, in videos and other large screen redraws (on nVidia GPU)

 

I did find one way to get vsync to work in Natty, but it involves
editing xorg.conf. I followed these instructions to disable composite
extension: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Composite

Of course if you do that then all desktop effects and Unity stop
working.

What is strange to me that disabling composite makes a difference when
using Metacity. I mean, in gconf I have the key
"/apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager" set to False, so it
shouldn't be using compositing in the first place.
