Workaround: 1.install the packages fglrx-amdcccle and vlc (vlc isn't needed if your video player support OpenGL video output too) 2.run Accessories - ATI Catalyst Control Center or run amdcccle in console 3.choose category 3D - More Settings and set "Waiting for vertical refresh" to "Always on" on the right 4.start vlc or your video player and choose OpenGL video output
Afterwards it should work. The OpenGL output is not perfect, sometimes a little bit grainy with red colors but much more better than the Xorg output. I have a HD 4870 so it should work on older cards too I guess. -- [fglrx] video tearing / vsync problems - independent of compiz use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303697 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
