Thanks to Taylor (#16), i got my screen tearing-free for fullscreen OpenGL(9800 GT, Natty):
-enable "unredirect fullscreen" + "vsync"
-set refresh-rate to 60
-uncheck automatic detection of refresh rates (detection fails: ccsm says 50, xrandr says 50 too, nvidia-settings 60, OSD of my screen 60 )
The only regression is that this way there is no preview of the fullscreen window if I hit Alt-Tab Window switching - Its OK for me.
Nevertheless I hoped with the "X Sync Fences" in X 1.10 everything would work out of the box.
