[Bug 151674] Re: compiz+nvidia: tearing in xvideo (totem/mplayer/VLC/XINE)

The CompizConfig solution works great in 10.4. I set [X] Sync to VBlank,
and Refresh Rate=60 Hz in ccsm, and the problem goes away. It even
persists across reboots. (I have run with compiz disabled for a long
time, because of some compatibility issue, but this is enough to make me
switch it on for video playback.)

I did not find this bug when I was frantically troubleshooting this
issue a few months ago. I think the solution should be put on a wiki
page as a temporary measure, to make it easier to find.  I don't have
time to put it there now, maybe later.

Thanks for the fix, it made my day!
