Simple fix for screen tearing - nVidia
From Manjaro
Revision as of 02:38, 17 March 2015 by imported>Handy (→Here is a very quick & simple procedure)
This fix is known to work with the nVidia non-Free driver package on Xfce & Openbox. It should work on any GTK based DE/WM & possibly others. This page will be updated in that regard as feedback comes in.
Here is the very quick & simple procedure
1. Open /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-mhwd.conf in your favourite text editor with root permission.
2. Under Section Device add the following line
Option "metamodes" "nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }"
3. Save the file & log out/in.
That's it.
It certainly works perfectly for some of us.
