  Nvidia-prime produces unbearable visual stutter

Bug description:
  I've installed NVIDIA-Prime v0.5 on Ubuntu 14.04 with all required
  dependencies, on a Clevo 355STQ with a 765m.

  My issue is that whilst the new switching feature works very well, it
  still produces an extremely noticable amount of visual stuttering. In
  graphical and applications and games I can produce very large frames-
  per-second numbers yet the amount of visual tear makes the program
  unusable. Vsync/Sync to Vblank/vblank_mode=1 also does not work as
  intended, with tearing still present.

  Has anyone else had this issue or found a fix?

Found what generates & regenerates the xorg.conf & patched to include the 
tearfree line.
Users wishing to test can get an patched ubuntu-driver-common here, 
instructions on page to get going & how to purge if unsuitable.

Note that it's for Trusty only

2015-09-03 Thread Doug McMahon
Just to note about the above - 
If nvidia-prime is used to switch to the intel gpu the xorg.conf is removed or 
moved to xorg.conf.xx
When switching back a new xorg.conf is created which will not contain the 
Option "TearFree" "True" line.

Whether whatever creates that xorg.conf should add the line by default is 
unknown here. 
(though if anyone can point to what/how creates the xorg.conf would like to know

2015-09-03 Thread Doug McMahon
At least here & others confirmed with recent nvidia mobile chips the latest 
nvidia drivers from the new ppa & an edit to xorg.conf eliminates most tearing 
(some vids here show a little on occasion
The ppa -  https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

The additional line added to  /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the Intel device section - 
Option "TearFree" "True"

Ex. here - 
Section "Device"
Identifier "intel"
Driver "intel"
BusID "PCI:0@0:2:0"
Option "AccelMethod" "SNA"
Option "TearFree" "True"
EndSection

2014-04-03 Thread Adam Richard Martinez
I'd just like to state that an update from the stable Trusty kernel
(3.13.0) to a mainline kernel (Trusty .deb) (3.13.8) seems to have
reduced much of the tearing, making games and applications much more
usable, at least on my machine. I'm not sure if this has anything to do
with the recently proposed dma-buf hardware synchronization patches.

2013-12-12 Thread Alberto Milone
Unfortunately this is a current limitation (to be fixed in the future)
also mentioned in NVIDIA's documentation:

"There is no synchronization between the images rendered by the NVIDIA
GPU and the output device. This means that the output device can start
reading the next frame of video while it is still being updated,
producing a graphical artifact known as “tearing”. Tearing is currently
expected due to limitations in the design of the X.Org X server."
