after a litle bit of testing only 6.2.4 have the teraing issue, 6.2.3 have no tearing In 6.2.4, tearing support was fixed, so this is expected. If you turn off the "allow tearing" option in display settings or enable vsync in the gamds, does it go away? i testet it with kwin 6.2.4 and the "allow tearing" option is not set, with vsync and without, games have tearing. i switched back to 6.1.5 and tearing is gone. is there a debug or a log to find out why this happen? tearing without vsync: https://youtu.be/Jc52TH3o4Yw tearing with vsync: https://youtu.be/mPMY8_kT1eE Created attachment 176590 [details]
allow tearing not set
No tearing with Kwin 6.1.5, it doesn't matter if VSync is on or off, or if the 'allow tearing' option in the display settings is enabled https://youtu.be/Bznilvr6cgY It seems that the option isn't applying immediately. If you turn "allow tearing" off, then log out and log in again, does it go away then? After many restarts and turning on and off the "allow tearing" now tearing is gone in full-screen and borderless mode, no idea why, and it doesn't matter now if the setting is on or off 🐛🧹 ⚠️ This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days.
