If you use XFCE on any distro(I'm guessing) just goto window manager tweaks, goto compositor tab, then click the checkbox for "Synchronize Drawing to the Vertical Blank" this fixed all tearing problems and it looks very smooth now.
First, install Compton:sudo apt-add-repository ppa:richardgv/comptonsudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install comptonNow, get it to run on startup:Go into the Applications menu and click ‘Settings Manager’, then click ‘Session and Startup’, then select the ‘Application Autostart’ tab,Click Add and:Name: ComptonDescription: Compositor for X11Command: compton --backend glx --paint-on-overlay --glx-no-stencil --vsync opengl-swcNow reboot
pidof compton
touch ~/.config/compton.conf
leafpad ~/.config/compton.conf
Once it’s installed, create a text file in ~/.config/ called compton.conf with the following contents:
compton --vsync opengl --backend glx -b
compton --backend glx --paint-on-overlay --glx-no-stencil --vsync opengl-swc
Jerry, is your command line to be used even with a single monitor setup?
Also, just so I understand, that is what you enter in the command line in startup programs, correct?
