I have a Dell 7567 laptop with NVIDIA and Intel GPUs and a very bad screen 
tearing on Ubuntu 2004 and nothing seems to be able to fix it. Could something 
be done about that?
At least with the proprietary drivers I have multiple windows support (mostly 
99% of the time works).

  If I install the older 384 driver then again with kernel 4.15 no prime
  sync but with the 4.13 kernel it works fine
