Bug ID: 363079 Summary: screen tearing, mostly seen with firefox and eclipse, possible relation with Product: kde Version: unspecified Platform: openSUSE RPMs OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org Reporter: je.joa...@yahoo.se Lots of window tearing in firefox, eclipse. Not seen when only displaying the desktop. Smooth scrolling set to off seem to reduce the amount of flickering, but does not fix the problem entirely. Tried XRender, openGl 3.1, 2.0 with all vsync settings and tearing is always present, but sometimes there are bursts of very intense tearing and during this time the computer is unusable. Restarting seem to temporarily fix it, then it gradually starts over again. There are no visible error prints or messages. HW: intel HD graphics, i5-6200U, FHD. KDE plasma: 5.6.3 KDE frameworks: 5.21.0 Qt: 5.5.1 kernel:4.5.3-1 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. startup a intel core-i5 6200U with intel HD graphics laptop 2. launch firefox and/or eclipse 3. normal usage Actual Results: tearing occurs every now and then and sometimes in crescendoes. Lots of web posts describes similar symptoms, some with suggested solutions that doesn't seem to have any effect in this case. During the bursts it is not possible to use the computer. Hope this helps Thanks, Regards -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
