>rebooting linux
Unless you updated your kernel, there is absolutely no reason to do it. And even then I'm sure there's probably a way and I just haven't bothered to look yet.
>add a few lines to my xorg shit
I always install compton, but would be glad if i could use the default compositor. Care to share those few lines?
W7 works without aero, basic and starter don't even have it. The fuckups started in the w10 anyway.
Works for me
Are you russian or what?
Ukrainian. Why?
>Care to share those few lines?
I'm not sure about nvidia, but on an AMD card, add
Section "Device"
Identifier "Radeon"
Driver "radeon"
Option "TearFree" "on"
EndSection
to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-radeon.conf, then restart your DM. Works like a charm for me.

modern desktop operating systems are all shit
it's like someone out there intentionally shits up everything to drive people off desktops and onto tablets and phones.
seriously, im using them all and there isn't a single one that *just werks*, or at least works after spending days to configure it.

Hilarious

aero isn't just a theme
it's basically a window compositor with vsync with a theme attached to it
there is a shitton of aero themes on deviantart, if you really need to rice this old mammoth's shit.
If the OS wasn't kike trash, I could use vsync with any theme I want.
Also reddit spacing.
you can use vsync with any theme you want
go to deviantart and download some themes
or you can continue being a stubborn asshole
your choice mang
I don't want deviantart themes, I want the classic theme. It's really the principle of it. A free as in freedom OS would trust me enough to let me use my computer how I want.
there is a classic theme with aero on deviantart
Looks like shit.
looks like classic theme with different close minimize restore buttons
Plus it's missing the gradient at the top of the window.
There's classic AE, you know. If you can use a Linux distro with XFCE I doubt you're so fucking stupid that you can't install a visual style. Also on Linux if you don't want tearing on chromium in many cases you have to override the software rendering list regardless of those DE settings. It's a mess.
>chromium
>"I doubt you're so fucking stupid"
Ha.
lookup hotpatch
Aero isn't a theme, dispshit.
The fact that you had to do that to "fix" the tearing issue in Linux is the point, stupid.
Linux sucks.
>option to fix it

>no option to fix it
Winbabbies are the most hopelessly deluded fucks on the planet.
I am not sure what this "screen tearing" is, honestly, I've never had it.
>/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-radeon.conf
The correct location would be /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-radeon.conf
Stuff in /usr/ can get deleted or overwritten when updating packages. /etc/ is permanent and defined as THE location for configuration files in the "filesystem hierachy standard"
Configuration files in /usr/ that come installed with programs are templates or the default configuration most of the time.
