Sorry can you say a little more about how you managed to get rid of the tearing? I don't see a "vsync" option in cccm. Do you mean "sync to vblank" (in OpenGL) or maybe "Don't wait for video sync" in "Workarounds"? I also don't see a vsync in the nvidia panel (only a "sync to vblank") either. Also do I need to restart compiz or X for this to work or should it work immediately?
Do you only get this problem if you've run videos for a while or while running videos? I ran some videos but the problem appeared much later and the tearing happens when moving any windows. Now when I try to run videos its very choppy. I'm running the natty with a Gtx 560 and the 270.41.06 nvidia driver. Actually its not just dragging windows its most graphical interactions -- even drop down menus and typing in a terminal is slow. And this has nothing to do with system load as the system is mostly idle with lots of unused ram. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/600178 Title: Screen tearing when dragging window, in videos and other large screen redraws (on nVidia GPU) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
