I finally get to report some good news...great news in fact. I finally have tear free XV fullscreen video on my G45. No Compiz needed, w00t! Thanks to all the devs/community for getting it there.<br><br>I just sync'd to head on xf86-video-intel driver. This is what else I'm running, all -9999 packages were sync'd to head within the last week of this posting.<br>
