I wouldn't leave this turned off though, especially if you use the ogl output with xine or mplayer, or you may see tearing. The point with the sync is that it only updates the display in the vertical blank period. 1500 fps isn't of any practical use, apart from bragging rights.


That's good to know. Before moving to the latest, I couldn't run glxgears at all, and I just wanted to make sure the hardware and drivers were working.

Still haven't figured out the "split screen" effect yet. It may be time for a full reinstall (yet) again. Sigh.



Do you mean one desktop split over two separate displays? Not that I can help, as I only have one display at a time.


No. I have a 1920x1080i timing mode from Jarrod that I was using with so-so results before the upgrade. Now, I still have a 1080i mode, but what is supposed to be on the left of the screen is on the right, and vice versa. I'll try to illustrate in text:

What I should see:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

What I do see:

NOPQRSTUVWXYZ_ABCDEFGHIJKLM
NOPQRSTUVWXYZ_ABCDEFGHIJKLM
NOPQRSTUVWXYZ_ABCDEFGHIJKLM
NOPQRSTUVWXYZ_ABCDEFGHIJKLM
NOPQRSTUVWXYZ_ABCDEFGHIJKLM
NOPQRSTUVWXYZ_ABCDEFGHIJKLM

The _'s indicate a vertical white bar. Actually, I am probably missing about the N and M portions as well from overscan. My set can adjust it, but it really warps the screen adjusting too much out this way.

This is the modeline:

ModeLine "1760x960" 74.5 1760 1888 2096 2208 960 1012 1028 1126 -hsync -vsync interlace

It is fed through an AudioAuthority transcoder to the component inputs on my Samsung widescreen.

Hope that explains the problem better.

Jeff.
