Flipping not working in fullscreen apps

Graphics / Linux Linux

In nvidia-settings I enabled “Allow flipping” in the OpenGL tab. I tested that this is working using the VRRTest and it said FLIP and G-SYNC.
When I now started a game in fullscreen mode, it never says FLIP but always BLIT and G-Sync does not work. How can I get it to work?

OS: Fedora 39 with Gnome 45.3
Driver version: 545.29.06
Kernel: 6.6.12-200

It works fine here.

Verfied with:

__GL_SHOW_GRAPHICS_OSD=1
__GL_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=0

I also have:

KWIN_X11_REFRESH_RATE=144000
KWIN_X11_NO_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=1
KWIN_X11_FORCE_SOFTWARE_VSYNC=1

Driver - 550.54.14
RTX4070, KDE, X11

It was actually the gnome tray icons extension that caused flipping not to work. If you are using gnome you need to disable the legacy tray icon support.
