Tricks to make xcompmgr Perform Better

Thu Dec 04, 2008 2:35 am

I have been having quite a time finding information regarding xcompmgr and settings related to xorg.conf. Even just finding recent list related to Nvidia settings is a chore.

Anyone know of anything?

All those really show is enabling the composite extension in X.Org. Which I've done. I've also enabled BackingStore -- from what I understand BackingStore is the equivalent to Triple Buffer in DirectX/Windows -- and RENDER. The thing is I don't know if RENDER is really needed, or what it does. Is it possible that the 100+ series of Nvidia drivers are enabling most things and so the only thing I need to do is enable the composite extension and BackingStore?
