I have been running pretty old 270.x drivers because the newer ones changed the behavior where vsync is enabled by default now (NOOOO).
I have a triple monitor setup at work and it syncs to my lowest refresh rate monitor which is only 48Hz which is horrible for the other two (67Hz and 60 Hz). I have tried adding: nvidia-settings --load-config-only to my xinitrc and also in kdm's kdmrc file I tried adding: # Additional environment variables KDM should pass on to all programs it runs. # LD_LIBRARY_PATH and XCURSOR_THEME are good candidates; # otherwise, it should not be necessary very often. # Default is "" ExportList=__GL_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=0 I wonder if its not taking effect as maybe these things environment variables dont work until after X is loaded? That is a problem as XGL is openGL based and what everything runs under and is pretty much the main process which is running =( Nothing seems to work. beryl bench is still showing 48 FPS which is driving me nuts. With steam for linux coming out I really want to use newer drivers now. Anyone have any ideas on getting around this? An option in /etc/X11/xorg.conf would have been nice for over-riding this default =(

I have even verified the environment variables are being set but vsync is still being enabled. Using the old driver I get 200-300 FPS after the first boot and with the newer ones I am stuck at 48 FPS:
Code:
