Why not make KWIN_TRIPLE_BUFFER=1 the default for all drivers? If it doesn't
work, the user should be able to turn it off in the GUI. This wouldn't be
different from the way it is handled with compositing. KWin doesn't check if
the driver is buggy or not (how could it, for future hardware!), it always
turns compositing on. So in the past, I had to turn compositing off manually,
because of a buggy Mesa driver (r600, nouveau).

I never had problems with tearing on all of my hardware with the Mesa drivers
(intel, r600, nouveau).
