Tearing third of the way down the screen. - Saner - 2014-04-18
This started when I updated to 14.04 it was fine with precise.
Fernetmenta's branch is fine, its only the official branch that does it vsync is always enabled in the video settings, its the same on menus, but its most noticeable on videos (obviously)
I can (and will switch to fernetmenta's branch) but I wanted to stay mainline if I could long term because of all the updates to the other branch, I wanted this box to be on Gotham final for the foreseeable future.
