A workaround for ubuntu 14.04 with nvidia driver is to disable backing store in xorg: Make sure you have the -bs option in lightdm config file: cat /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-xserver-command.conf [SeatDefaults] # Dump core xserver-command=X -bs -core -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1278012 Title: tearing with vsync enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1278012/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1278012] Re: tearing with vsync enabled
It seems the problem is caused by the backing store function of xorg. It is disabled by default in 1.14.5 and enabled by default in 1.15.0. If I disable it with -bs on xorg startup, I have no tearing with 1.15.0. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1278012 Title: tearing with vsync enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1278012/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Same with a nvidia 660ti with 304, 331, 334 nvidia drivers on x64 14.04 + xserver-xorg-core_1.14.5-1ubuntu1_amd64. Downgrading to 2:1.14.5-1ubuntu gets rid of the tearing.

That's odd. Can you also please play around with the compositor settings and different desktop enviroments?
