XFCE still has screen tearing out of the box
Gabriel Peterson
Joshua Miller
why doesn't xfce go the wayland route
don't they use gtk3 already? that shit is wayland compatible
Justin Lopez
4.14? Only on arch maybe and the solution is just to uncheck the "enable display composition" under the compositor tab and then re-check it. On void it's working perfectly.
t. debian user with 4.12 still requiring compton
Easton Gray
I just tried Xubuntu 19.04 and Trisquel mini. I tried that trick and it didn't work. Neither on the BSDs with xfce.
I'm so pissed.
Gavin Parker
Why wouldn't it? Dont you want good battery life?
Hunter Murphy
I want a basic desktop experience first, battery life second.
Samuel Baker
Man, I'd really like to see that. Does user know what changes would have to be made?
Anthony Kelly
>not just using gnome
Jacob Smith
Because Wayland is a piece of shit
Bentley Reyes
Why the hell wouldn't you just use Compton? I use Arch Linux w/ Openbox, xfce4-panel and Compton.
Adam Flores
Why does it even exist? It's not better in anything than any of the existing solutions.
Carter Edwards
better quality
Joshua Thomas
it doesn't come in a box silly
Jason Hall
xfce not wfce retard
Jaxson Gomez
Nvidia did their absolute best to make their shit hardware as incompatible with Wayland as they could.
Nvidia is a shit company in general. Even Apple broke up with them because of the many defects in Macbooks they directly caused and now they don't even sign their drivers anymore.
Nvidia's business model is inventing proprietary shit and getting everyone to use it so they can't move back to AMD.
Christopher Perez
seething tranny poorfag
Joseph Perry
zoomer chucklefuck
Eli Ward
nvidia amirite
Aaron Nguyen
use mate buddy
xfce4 is nice but still shit out of the box
Caleb Smith
And what about the filepicker?
Leo Anderson
>BAWWW SCREEN TEARING
Stop putting your fucking nose up to your goddamn screen so your brain doesn't see all this bullshit.
This is why we've raped Xorg to have this accelerated bullshit and want that garbage Wayland shit.
Aiden King
>not just using cinnamon
Fixed that for you. Gnome sucks.
Oliver Gutierrez
I use xubuntu 19.4 with proprietary Nvidia drivers and I have zero screen tearing out of the box.
John Lee
Yeah but you have nvidia, so you're dumb
Luke Harris
get real (proprietary) graphics drivers
Aiden Rodriguez
because nobody uses xfce and normal people use gnome, the most popular linux desktop environment
Gabriel Hernandez
The GNU Network Object Model Environment does not have this problem
Lincoln Moore
It just has every other problem, like being slow, buggy, and a pile of goddamn shit.
Carson Stewart
I sit pretty far from my monitor and it's really noticeable.
Eli Robinson
thank u user ^w^
you're actually retarded. screentearing is extremely noticeable and jarring and effects visibility. you're actually dumb as a rock, i hope you use something as shitty as xfce. you deserve it
Jordan Perez
xfce 2016 better than xfce 2019
Caleb Howard
Install a compositor.
Matthew Perez
Using with Arch and Slackware no problem.
Liam Barnes
vblank preset, that’s it.
Gabriel Perez
i can understand arch but why the fuck are you using slackware?
"stability" is their excuse for being lazy as fuck. debian is just as ubuntu or arch or void or what-have-you, and slackware is no different.
OLD GOOD NEW BAD
Jeremiah Nelson
Windows 8.1 doesn't have this problem.
Jaxon Nelson
confirmed for knowing nothing.
Brandon Russell
>debian is just as ubuntu or arch or void or what-have-you, and slackware is no different.
>OLD GOOD NEW BAD
What does this mean?
Jackson Evans
You all uneducated niggas have to learn how to setup your Xorg properly... You know what? Go to wayland. We definitively dont need kids around here.
Ian Thomas
Iiiinn a peeerfeeect woorld...
World ain't perfect tho, your plan a shit, nibba.
Angel Ortiz
>Why does it even exist?
It's a failed attempt to distract trannies from committing suicide by giving them something to do.
Gavin Green
Tearing in X is only a problem on Nvidia cards.
Grayson Bailey
Why the fuck should you need to do anything to achieve a basic feature that has existed on other OS’a for at lest a decade at this point?
Landon Williams
>gnome
does not even have fractional display scaling, which comes with xfce and basically gimps any decent laptop
Colton Martinez
It does, it just hasn't been declared well-tested enough to be included in the GUI settings. You can enable it through dconf or the terminal.
gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['x11-randr-fractional-scaling']"
James Clark
cinnamon is underrated af brehs.
but so is xfce.
Jace Turner
>"stability" is their excuse for being lazy as fuck.
This is bait right?
Easton Garcia
Do people really care so much about tearing?
Apart from watching movies and playing full screen games, tearing doesn't bother me at all.
And those apps typically have their own ways to implement vsync.
The "tearing" problem is a made up non-issue by some trannies who want to push their degenerate, useless display server.
Brandon Johnson
What's with the obsession?
Levi Hill
Screen tearing is a DRIVER ISSUE, it isn't a WM/DE issue.
Fix your God damn driver.
Yes, it is absolutely horrible.
I wouldn't use a computer which has screen tearing thankfully you can easily fix your God damn driver and never see it again.
Bentley Harris
Nope, it is also a problem on Intel cards, you just need to fix your driver to never see it again.
Gabriel Thomas
>Do people really care so much about tearing?
Yes they do, you retard.
Aiden Harris
Those thing make up like 50% of what people do on ther computers and it's still fucking annoying when scrolling through pages etc. Also it has nothing to do with trannies and display servers.
It isn't even hard to fix and that is the reason why I just don't understand how this is still a relatively big problem under linux.
Kayden Morales
Compton has to be configured just right to remove screen tearing. And in my experience it either doesn't work, or introduces a laughable amount of microstuttering and lag.
Carter Green
>Why the hell wouldn't you just use Compton
Doesn't fix tearing on my machine.
Just configure your driver.
Austin Barnes
Same but I do have tearing.
Aaron Sanchez
Fix your driver then.
Elijah Foster
>non-issue
If it doesn't exist on any windows or any mac os version, or even other linux WMs, then it's a flaw. It's mind numbing to move a terminal window and see it go apeshit, or scroll down a Jow Forums thread and have two thick ass horizontal lines twitchign. Fix your god damn shit.
Jason Cooper
My driver works on gnome without screen tearing. No, it's not a driver issue.
Nicholas Robinson
do you have screen tearing?
Elijah Cooper
How?
Ryan Reed
Yes on XFCE, LXDE, LXQT, and Mate.
Adam Robinson
>My driver works on gnome without screen tearing.
Because gnome might be running on Wayland and or is implementing its own vsync.
In any case the one solution to never see screen tearing is to fix your fucking driver.
Nathan Perez
Well the driver isn't working that well then is it?
Jayden Thompson
Which GPU vendor? If it's AMD no clue, but for Intel and Nvidia it's quite easy.
Adrian Morris
It is, no screen tearing in windows either.
Gnome has wayland and xorg variants, both have no tearing.
Intel HD 4400, embedded intel i3 530 GPU, nvidia gt 750m.

>Gnome has wayland and xorg variants, both have no tearing.
This in no way contradicts what I said.
Levi Murphy
You're saying that screen tearing is a driver issue and I demonstrated some counter examples. Thanks I'll look at those links.
Anthony Wright
I recently installed Xubunutu on my shitty Intel Celeron laptop (Lenovo ideapad). It's quite faster than Windows10 but are there any faster distros that I can use?
I mainly plan on browsing and doing college assignments (no vidya).
Alexander Young
All distros are fast. You can get a minimalistic arch install with the latest compiler versions and build linux to your preference. That will be really fast.
Nicholas Sullivan
>and I demonstrated some counter examples.
No, that a driver issue is mitigated by the wm is not a counter example.
My point is that tearing has a root cause, which is the driver.
Liam Stewart
>mitigated
Lol.
Benjamin Fisher
Thunar always.
Tyler Roberts
full rewrite.
James Foster
same argument goes for privacy on win 10. stop crying like a little kid and append one line to your xorg config file and enjoy your freedom without screen tearing, its not that hard.
Leo Nelson
>privacy on win 10
All settings are privacy-oriented on the more expensive releases.
>append one line
Nope. If it's that easy, it should be automated.
Austin Collins
>he doesn’t know about slackware-current
Christian Morris
>We definitively dont need kids around here.
Enjoy your sinking ship.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: The Linux desktop, circa 2019.

Is the joke that you didn't post an image?
Alexander Perry
Covering up for their own tranny tendencies.
Elijah Lopez
It's weird, Jow Forums(nel) talks a shitton more about trans people than any other place I've been and I have no idea why.
Cooper Adams
Clear Linux* if you have UEFI.
Ethan Ramirez
Hello, hownew.ru? You’re on the designated programming socks board.
Ryder Carter
Old enough to remember when this shit took over this place. There isn't a tech discussion without someone bringing trans people into it. It's insane.
Dominic Kelly
Yeah, it’d be nice if we could escape this place. Oh, wait...
Robert Garcia
It's annoying but understandable. Young men have no reason to exist anymore, of course they're going to go overboard on the first thing that gives their worthless lives both substance and someone to blame for their sorry state. See also the christfags who think proselytizing on a Vietcong jade carving forum is meaningful in any way.
Nicholas Cruz
Install Temple OS and repent.
Hunter Richardson
Boy, don't even get me started on the unironic schizo worship. Skycuck was a faggot too.
Ian Garcia

This.
Desktop composition on Linux is still a mess in 2019 and nobody can confute this fact.
Nathaniel Brooks
Post on /wsr/, it's fun and you're doing something useful with your life too! At least that's what I tell myself.
Colton Torres
They'll have to rename the project
Adam Nelson
This is the most autistic cope I've ever seen
Jace Martinez
This works on my machine.

Adrian Hall
XFCE used to give me that problem when I ran Xubuntu. I installed Arch, and it hasn't been an issue. I use Arch btw.
Caleb Myers
Hahahaha look at all the seething lincucks arguing in this thread meanwhile macos and windows chads are oblivious to all these problems even being a thing because their shit just werks
Caleb Bennett
>macos and windows chads are oblivious
Ignorance is bliss.
