To test for yourself:: move a dark window against a light background rapidly, at the same time attempt a screenshot.

Tearing is always occuring even with compiz off, but it is far less obvious. When you turn compiz on any existing tearing gets severly exaggerated. Tearing also occurs with the open source nv drivers. something must be done.

Freedesktop.org: the people who make xorg-server (which both kde and gnome use) don't even know what vsync is or why anyone wants it.
