Hi,
(commit 0e6b940/bug #14564)
not enabled in your build.
"unbreak things" is usually suboptimal, I would advise to 1. enable
Xpresent in your build and 2. use a more current source tree for your
build.
Cheers,
Olivier

So you're defaulting to GL for vblank which is broken in the version you use.- Epoxy support: Yes
- KDE systray proxy (deprecated): No
```
one of our users has an issue with the amdgpu graphics driver.
`xfwm4 --replace --vblank=off` works around that problem, so we would
like to disable it, on only that system, and it’d be nice, if the
users could do it themselves.
Reading [1], it should be possible, but there is no option
*Synchronize drawing to the vertical blank* in the tab *Compositor*
in xfwm4-tweaks-settings.
I am now going to configure it in `/etc/Xmor erecent11/xorg.conf.d/`, but it’d
be great if the user could do it.
