Bug ID: 499366
Summary: Set QSG_NO_VSINK=1 or
QSG_USE_SIMPLE_ANIMATION_DRIVER=1 to avoid jerking in
some effects
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: effects-various
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Ever since switching to QSG for many effects I have noticed that they would
occasionally have microshakes, more like a loss of a few frames. Experimenting
I found that setting QSG_NO_VSINK=1 solved the problem. Not only that, it seems
that this was also related to another problem: when I brought the mouse to the
corner of the screen, where I had set the Overview effect, it would start and
come back quickly.
Now it no longer does this. I don't think it is advisable to set QSG_NO_VSINK=1
for the whole environment, my suggestion is to do this only for Kwin within the
code. Another approach could be QSG_USE_SIMPLE_ANIMATION_DRIVER=1 which seems
to achieve the same result and seems to be preferred in this guide:
