Hello community,
I'm using a Thinkpad X200T (Intel 4500MHD graphics) with Xfce+Compiz. Unfortunately, the video card exhibits severe tearing issues when scrolling, watching videos or moving windows. Recently I was able to solve the problem by activating VSync in Compiz settings. The tearing issues completely disappeared. However, after activating VSync there is a problem when waking up from suspend: The screen is frozen, I can only move my mouse pointer, anything else on the screen doesn't move. I can however interact with the system blindly and this works. After some time (usually, several minutes; sometimes it takes so long that I just kill X...) the screen unfreezes and I can see that my commands have been executed. But waiting for a very long time after every wake up is pretty annoying, so I would really appreciate any advice on how to debug this.
Thanks,
PhotonX

The very worst thing you can do with free software is to download it, see that it doesn't work for some reason, leave it, and tell your friends that it doesn't work. - Tuomas Lukka

If you have not tried the following, disable vsync and try this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSectionhttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … free_video
This works for tearing issues I experienced with my Intel Graphics.
