Description kaankasim88 2015-05-07 22:58:13 UTC
I'm having jerky vsync because of wrongly detected refresh rate. According to fps monitor  kwin is running at 50fps which causes jery motion. As can be easily seen at http://www.testufo.com/#test=framerates, it should be smooth but it is not.

I have tried having double or triple buffer on nvidia config or profile but they had no effect.

kwin_core: OpenGL 2 compositing successfully initialized
kwin_core: Vertical Refresh rate  50 Hz

Reproducible: Always




KDE on Archlinux with Nvidia 340.76 drivers.
