Hello, since many versions of Kubuntu/KWin this problem of tearing/flickering/bad refresh screen/screen synchronization when using nvidia proprietary drivers persists. The problem is that when there are fast changes in screen, you can see annoying horizontal lines/flashes. For example in videos, fast scrolling in web browsers, or applications such as Blender 3D. In Blender 3D the problem is easily verifiable and visible, simply open default cube scene, rotate the view with middle mouse button making one vertex on top of the cube to be in front of you, then quickly zoom in and out with the mouse wheel.
Even though this has been reported many times and marked as solved, but it has never really been solved.
The only thing that has worked for me and solves the problem (I use it since Kubuntu 14.04) is this workaround:
https://www.muylinux.com/2014/02/25/corregir-sincronizacion-tearing-nvidia-kde/
which consists of copying the following lines within this file kate "/etc/profile.d/kwin.sh":
export __GL_YIELD="USLEEP"
export KWIN_TRIPLE_BUFFER=1
The question is, would it be possible for Kubuntu or nvidia maintainers to apply that workaround by default when you install Kubuntu or nvidia proprietary driver?
Otherwise there are a lot of new Kubuntu users having this problem over the years.
Thank you very much. |

Edit:
According to this, apparently it is not advisable to use both lines at the same time:
https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/828962/screen-tearing/
At least for me, first line is enough to eliminate tearing.

The question is, would it be possible for Kubuntu or nvidia maintainers to apply that workaround by default when you install Kubuntu or nvidia proprietary driver?
