Hi,
I have a problem. I have a laptop with AMD CPU (Ryzen 7) and nVidia GPU (GTX 1650), so I must use optimus-manager. (I think) But if I’m using the optimus-manager, the screen is tearing, or the “V-Sync” isn’t working. How to fix it? It’s visible if I’m moving windows, scrolling on pages, looking at the video, games, etc…
Thanks

Warning: No installed USB configs!
you forget output from this:
find /etc/X11/ -name "*.conf"
and do you have installed optimus-manager and optimus-manager-qt?
Yes, I have both installed. Ah, sorry, here is it.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-optimus-manager.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/etc/X11/mhwd.d/nvidia.conf
post output from the configs:
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
cat /etc/X11/mhwd.d/nvidia.conf
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-optimus-manager.conf
and there are settings in optimus-manager-qt, to enable vscyn, tripple buffer etc, dont have it no longer installed, so cant check …

so did you checked the settings in optimus manager qt:
and did the screen tearing happened before you have installed optimus?
and did the screen tearing happens on amdgpu or on nvidia?
I checked, but I didn’t found any option to VSync or something else. The screen tearing is only on the second monitor, on the monitor on laptop is it okay. Bcs without optimus, the second monitor isn’t working for me, I must have optimus. It’s happening on nVidia, because monitor is connected only to nVidia card.
so you are switched to nvidia?
Yes, I’m.
so open nvidia settings, and check if there is ForceCompositionPipeline=On
Um, In optimus?
no, nvidia x server settings, search for it in application launcher
Nope, Force Composition Pipeline and Force Full Composition Pipeline are unchecked.
so select first Force Composition Pipeline, click apply/save and test if it helped …
if not select the full composition and see if that helped
Yeeees, the first worked for me. Thanks a lot, I had a problem with this like a year and finally, I fixed it.
glad it worked, so test so more, and if there are still issues, check if triple buffer is on, and AllowIndirectGLXProtocol is off … dont need to change it, if it works…
Okey, thanks.
am curious, the Force Full Composition Pipeline
didnt worked?
