That's very disheartening, since vsync is one of the best and easiest things you can do to improve the quality of on-screen motion. -- Hardy 8.04 - Vsync setting has no effect when enabled in CCSM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212587 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I just visited freedesktop.org for vsync. Apparently, they don't even know what it is. Nor do they seem willing to find out what it is or why people want it.

[Bug 212587] Re: Hardy 8.04 - Vsync setting has no effect when enabled in CCSM
This is confirmed in Intrepid-beta on amd64, even with the nvidia drivers (as the nvidia drivers' vsync options don't always work, as reported around the net). There's a good writeup on nvnews (http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=113599) about this issue on NVidia cards, and about how Compiz seems to be using "glXWaitVideoSyncSGI", which can be pre-empted (and thus, miss the proper vblank time) instead of glXSwapBuffers. The nvnews thread also includes a patch which claims to help this issue a bit. It's a small patch, so it should be easy to test, and possibly may be useful for inclusion in the Debian patches to help resolve this issue. -- Hardy 8.04 - Vsync setting has no effect when enabled in CCSM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212587 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This option doesn't appear to have any effect on my computer either.

That had no effect.

Did you restart compiz after changing this setting? Just press alt-f2 and run 'compiz' to restart it. If you do that does the setting take effect? ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Hardy 8.04 - Vsync setting has no effect when enabled in CCSM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212587 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
