Summary: Tearing with composite extension
Product: xorg
Version: 7.6
Platform: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS/Version: Linux (All)
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: medium
Component: Driver/nouveau
AssignedTo: nouveau@lists.freedesktop.org
ReportedBy: d...@ereomega.net
QAContact: xorg-t...@lists.x.org
See Ubuntu bug report for more details:

There is extremely bad tearing with both nouveau and nvidia proprietary driver.
Tearing is present even without using a compositing window manager. The only
way I've been able to stop the tearing is to do something like:
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Disable"
EndSection
I'm not sure which component is at fault (XGL, composite, nouveau?).
I have tested both nvidia driver and nouveau under unity, classic, and classic
(no effects). Changing driver makes no difference. Single or dual display
makes no difference.
