I am running 18.04, and I have a Radeon R9 290 video card. On Youtube, in Chrome, no matter what I do, I get screen tearing. What I have done so far (to seemingly no effect) is:
Tried both AMDGPU and Radeon video drivers
Tried both Wayland and Xorg
Turned off Chrome's hardware acceleration feature in the settings,
In CCSM, I went to Utility > Workarounds and turned on
Force full screen redraws (buffer swap) on repaint,
Force complete redraw on initial damage, and
Don't wait for video sync
Added the "TearFree" option with the "on" boolean to
/etc/X11/xorg.conf,
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-radeon.conf,
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-amdgpu.conf, and
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/xorg.conf
All of these came from tutorials I found on Google, promising to forever eliminate screen tearing. However after weeks of this, I've still had no luck.
Any ideas?
