Ubuntu video becomes a looping repetition
Ubuntu video becomes a looping repetition
I updated the Intel settings, swapped the choice to dri3. The system works fine now, but I’m still experiencing screen tearing. It seems there’s something else I should add to the configuration.
Section "Device" name: Intel Graphics
Driver name: intel
Feature setting: AccelMethod → uxa
Enable feature: TearFree → true
I'm running low on ideas, uxa just reverts to an older approach. It seems you're dealing with the unstable part of Intel drivers. The other option I have is to test a distribution that uses KDE Plasma as the desktop and turn on VSYNC in the Compositor. Check if your current setup has something similar. Meanwhile, you can delete the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf with sudo.
It was strange that SNA was supposed to be the default. Good to hear it's now working!
