I'm trying to sort out what may be causing the video stuttering issues I'm having on my Clevo P150HM/ATI 6970M laptop with the latest radeon driver set. The behavior is that the video display noticeably stutters all the time. It's easily seen when playing any video file, but it is also exhibited when editing a file, using the command line, and right now as I type in this post. There is a noticeable lag, and then the display catches up. My configuration is;
I also have the following additional configuration files;
And;
I've tried removing the /etc/env.d/99radeon and /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20radeon.conf configuration files and installing only the default drivers from the portage tree;
But it doesn't seem to change the behavior. Any hints would be appreciated.
Thanks..
