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

 

In Natty, I get close to no tearing with VDPAU on my Nvidia GT240 by
setting ccsm  to enable "unredirect fullscreen", enable "vsync", and
forcing compiz's refresh rate to 120. But, it's still hit or miss
sometimes. Vdpau will still sometimes either be slow, or have searious
tearing. I found that by restarting compiz a few times and
enabling/disabling "copy to texture" plugin can temporarily fix the
video tearing. It's not consistent, and I have no idea why it even works
when it does. When it does work, it eliminates 90% of the tearing
issues, but they still sometimes occur on very rapid screen
movement/changes.
