I have upgraded to Linux 3.8-rc7 and xf86-video-intel 2.21.2 on my ThinkPad X200 (Intel GM45) and on my workstation (Sandy Bridge GT2). On my X200, I can use the TearFree option without any side-effects. If I enable it on my workstation though, the result of terminal commands such as ls -hl or ps auxf often lags — the lines appear one after another, just like on a serial connection. Just wanted to let you know in case you were not aware of that yet. Let me know if you need any more details. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755841 Title: [sandybridge] Graphics tearing when playing video To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/755841/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
