Hello!
I'm trying to cope with tearing on video playback and page scrolling in Firefox. I tried to follow the guide from ATI archwiki by adjusting options in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-radeon.conf for the opensource driver, but Arch refused to boot up, fell to pure console. Systemd's systemctl status told me that system was in a degraded state, list-units --state=failed showed me that LightDM exited with code 1. After removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-radeon.conf Arch managed to boot to graphical target.
So, what am I doing wrong? Help, please!
Thanks in advance.
