Here is how to fix screen taring in Linux. Do this for every monitor.
Note: If you do not see “Force Composition Pipeline”, click “X Server Display Configuration” and where it says “Basic”, you might see “Advanced”. Click “Advanced”.
If you are having issues saving the “X Configuration File” run the following command.
Create a backup: $ sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
$ sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
$ sudo chmod u+x /usr/share/screen-resolution-extra/nvidia-polkit
If you run into issues, do the following, to reset the file: $ sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup2 $ sudo shutdown -r now
$ sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup2
$ sudo shutdown -r now
