Turning of Vsync with xf86-video-intel
Hej!
I just wanted to give Quakelive a new try on my laptop with a gma4500 graphics card. But when entering the game i noticed that my frames stuck around 60. So I was wondering, does anyone know how to disable VSync with the above mentioned intel drivers?
Thx

I already added swapbuffers wait to my xorg, but nothing changed. Cant get more than 60 fps out of either glxgears, quakelive or openarena

Re: Turning of Vsync with xf86-video-intel
What is the problem with 60 fps? Your screen won't show you more frames no matter how fast it is rendered.
But you can set the variable vblank_mode=0.
Another possibility is with driconf "Synchronization with vertical refresh".

Hi, I have this problem too, but vblank_mode=0 not working
~$ sudo vblank_mode=0 glxgears
