Stop Blaming Your Gaming PC!

My old monitor died recently and I bought a #CRG9 to replace it. I have a #AMD #Radeon 6500XT, I run #Arch #Linux with #Xorg and #EXWM and the #Compton/#Picom compositor. I bought the monitor for productivity issues as I'm not much of a gamer, the only games I play these days are Tagpro, a simple capture-the-flag browser game, and Chess.

Are there any twiddling knobs on the monitor? #retrocomputing #monitors used to have #hsync and #vsync twiddly bits.

DO try to adjust your set...

@walkerb Just for completeness, flicker-free graphics on the #C64 aren't achieved *only* by drawing speed. Like on any platform where you update some "framebuffer" that's used live by the gfx chip, even the fastest drawing routine will show flickering when executed at the "wrong" raster beam position.

So, you also have to care about #vsync (or: "race the beam"): only start drawing some area after the raster beam passed it.

Vsync : la bonne façon de mettre à jour l'écran en SDL2

Si vous lisez un tuto sur la façon dont on gère l'affichage avec la bibliothèque SDL, il y a de fortes chances que celui-ci résume cela par une boucle : faire les calculs pour la « logique » du jeu (bouger les personnages, etc.), appeler les fonctions d'affichage, rafraîchir l'écran, puis mettre le programme en « sommeil » pour un temps. Sauf que cette méthode est obsolète et qu'on peut faire beaucoup mieux… voyons ça. (...)

it looks like xorg||cinnamon and vsync are not very friendly to multi orientation displays. Disgaea 2 (linux native) keeps flickering while in full screen mode

Solution: running the game in nested x server with xephyr

is there a #Wayland fork that disables the #vsync or something

I heard games can do it in their settings already
