I've installed archlinux+Gnome 3.22. Everything is working fine except i915 mod (I think) because I can see display tearing, mostly in firefox.

I tried every 20-intel.conf configurations. I installed xf86-video-intel and then I removed it. No difference. The fun part is that there is no tearing in ubuntu 16.10 and I have no idea why (I want arch because of aur)

I tried adding CLUTTER_PAINT=disable-clipped-redraws:disable-culling to /etc/environment but then it looks like apps are stuck in an infinite loop (I don't know how to explain it) I tried adding i915.enable_rc6=0 to grub but it causes gdm to crash

Any suggestions?

  • Funny thing, I have the same specs (only HD520 instead of 530) and I experience tearing only when using Xorg. With Wayland I have no tearing at all. – Aventinus Oct 19 '16 at 14:14
