Support, Screen Tearing.

[Head_on_a_Stick]

AMD GPU (r7 370), AMD Phenom II x6 1090T

Try the TearFree option for the kernel driver:

Code: Select all

sudo mkdir -p /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
sudo tee /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-tearfree.conf <<!
Section "Device"
   Identifier "AMD"
   Driver "radeon"
   Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection
!

I am presuming the card uses the radeon(4) driver, the QSI output will show for sure. If it says "amdgpu" instead then substitute that in place of "radeon".

If the desktop won't load afterwards then just delete the file at /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-tearfree.conf to revert to the stock configuration.

And I am sorry, but I still have no idea what QSI is..

When asking for help, please first: Menu => MX Tools => Quick System Info

Okay, I've restarted my pc and it boots me to, like full screen commandline, I can't get into desktop. What should I do?

What should I do?

If you tried my suggestion then simply remove the file, as mentioned at the end of my post.

Looks like your kernel driver isn't loaded, did you select one of the "failsafe" options when booting the MX ISO image?

How can I remove the file?

[Head_on_a_Stick]

Code: Select all

sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-tearfree.conf

[Sparky]

go to the launcher and type 'quick' this will show you a Quick System Info. Click on it and then copy everything and paste it here.

[Huckleberry Finn]

Yep.. But first: Hit Ctrl + Alt + F1

then type your user name and password (login) then sudo rm ...

Okay I've deleted the file, what now?
