arkayxubuntu user since yesterday18:06
arkaydoes anyone know how to fix nvidia tearing ? i didn't find a proper solution although i've searched a lot18:07
drleviathanarkay, I don't know what nvidia tearing you're talking about, but I wonder if you have the correct nvidia drivers installed yet18:21
drleviathanas I recall xubuntu uses the "nv" driver by default which is an open-source driver18:21
arkayyes but the tearing is even worse with "nv", I ticked "nvidia binary driver" in Software and Updates > Additional Drivers18:22
drleviathanok good18:22
arkaybut some graphical glitches remain when scrolling in the browser for example, or when viewing videos18:23
drleviathanthe tearing happens when... what?  you're playing some game that leans hard on GPU acceleration?18:23
arkayno it even happens on text scroll18:23
arkayor when moving windows18:23
drleviathanhuh... I haven't seen that on my system18:24
arkaylucky you :)18:24
drleviathanarkay, what is your hardware?  i5?  something better?  and what nvidia card?18:24
arkayi5 + gtx 97018:24
drleviathanhuh, I'd expect that to be fast enough.  I wouldn't suspect the hardware.18:25
arkayi found out it's better with "window manager tweaks > compositor > synchronize drawing to the vertical blank" but still glitchy though18:25
arkayno hardware problem because it was ok in windows18:25
drleviathanhrm... I have "Enable display compositing" disabled.18:26
drleviathanI can't remember why I disabled it, but probably because I don't care for eye candy and tend to opt out.18:27
arkayfor me it's worth when disabled18:28
arkayanyway thanks for your answers18:28
drleviathanyou mean "its worth it to enable display compositing"?  Or you decided to disable it to avoid tearing?18:34
arkayno, it is worth whitout compositing18:34
arkayyes it's worth it sorry18:35
arkayworse without, worth it enabled ^18:35
arkay^^18:35
