DRI2 can only flip if the application window covers the whole X11 desktop,
which is probably not the case with several monitors.

De-interlacing happens before the DRI2 buffer swap, so the tearing probably
isn't directly related to that.

Sounds like this needs to be fixed in MythTV. Resolving as not our bug.

With EXA, the mechanism controlled by Option "SwapbuffersWait" prevents
tearing, but presumably at the cost of one (additional) frame of delay. That
mechanism is not available with glamor.
