[Bug 377090] Re: [i945gm] (Needs kernel 2.6.31) DRI2 swapbuffers

[Eric Appleman]

Here's a rather fascinating workaround(?) that can guarantee (on my
laptop at the very least) tear-free playback in MPlayer without the need
for any further tricks:

gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager
false

Kernel: 2.6.30 (2.6.31-rc1 works too!)
Driver: Intel git master
Mesa: git master
DRM: git master
DRI: git master
Xorg: 1.6.1
