All GUI apps are have noticeable skips (text waits for 1s estimated for example to be updated, gifs play 1 frame every second etc) if I am not constantly moving my mouse.
Also while OBS application is open even without any sources configured and with a black window the effect is the same as moving the mouse. If OBS is minimized the skips come back.
It sounds like G-SYNC is active when it shouldn’t be. Normally, an application profile disables G-SYNC for desktop window managers such as GNOME, but maybe it isn’t being applied properly for some reason.
Normally, nvidia-bug-report.sh would include the application profiles on your system, but I don’t see them in there. Do you have any files matching the pattern /usr/share/nvidia/nvidia-application-profiles-*-rc and if so, could you please attach them?
Looks like I will have to make a patch… I’m going to go code exploring, could you make my journey shorter by telling me where your drivers look for /usr/share/nvidia/nvidia-application-profiles-*-rc, and if its feasible for a patch or if we will be having to repatch for every driver update?
