Re: Fix screen tearing for intel gpu?


What did it change resolution to?

Is it maybe the (native) default resolution of the monitor?

Did you try to use the programs for setting resolution and change it to what you want?

In /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/

Add this file:
20-intel-graphics.conf.gz

Reboot making sure save is updated.

Any help?


It did fix the screen tearing issue but it also changed my ...

Is there any version of Puppy with XFCE and apt package manager?

Exactly as the subject says, I know there's a lot of forks of puppies out there so I'm just wondering if there's any that already come with xfce and apt or if I can install them and which one would be best for that

Re: In Fossapup64 how do I change screen brightness?

Re: Audio very low in Fossapup64?


I said in my post I've literally already done this
