LE 7.90.007 - tearing during video playback

  • A radeon glamor driver has a "TearFree" option that is for some reason defaulted to "off". Creating in /storage/.config the file xorg.conf as follows solves the issue.
    Code:

    Code
    Section "Device"
            Identifier  "AMD Graphics"
            Driver      "radeon"
            Option      "DRI3"        "1"
            Option      "TearFree" "on"
    Endsection

    P.S. It would be nice if the maintainers add this option in the build...
    P.P.S. The same seems to be applicable to amdgpu driver, too.
