Just for anyone who wants to turn DR3 back, here is the solution I found: - You need to have a DRI3 enabled xserver-xorg-video-intel driver. You can get one from the xorg-edgers ppa. I just downloaded the deb file that suits for my Ubuntu architecture from here: https://launchpad.net /~xorg- edgers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages?field.name_filter=&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=vivid
After that just do sudo dpkg -i ./name_of_the_debfile - xorg configuration needs adjustments. Just do sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf and insert: Section "Module" Load "dri3" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Intel" Option "DRI" "3" EndSection Now everything runs much smoother, without a sign of tearing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1401784 Title: Disable DRI3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1401784/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
