SOLVED - nouveau sync to vblank

I've been using the nouveau driver and it's working well.

I have a problem with tearing. I read an article that suggested that nouveau supports sync to vblank and this can be set in xorg.conf.

Two questions:

- is this true and
- if so how do I set that in xorg.conf

Thanks

I read those before I posted. The answer's not there, hence my question.

Thanks though.

irc.freenode.net/#nouveau could have some answers, it's a pretty active channel.
