hi guys, i'm new to solus, i'm having problems with video drivers in a lot of distros with my current hardware, a lot of them have a tearing problem, KDE have some graphical glitches, when i installed Solus it seems to work fine without any tearing, (but with a bit of stuttering) then i updated the system and the stuttering were gone but now i have tearing, how can i solve this problem?? can i force v-sync?
i'm using a Pentium E5500 @ 3.6Ghz with 2GB RAM, the graphics is a old G33/G31, which worked fine on Windows 7.
Edit: Solved, i just created a file called "20-intel.conf" at /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and copied this into the file and restarted, now everything is fine.
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection
extra:
Firefox also had a unrelated tearing issue, just go to about:config and set "gfx.xrender.enabled" to true
