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.

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?
