Re: [libreoffice-users] Screen tearing in LibreOffice

More long shots...

Are any of the test computers on a Uninterruptible Power Supply?
If so, run the document on that one and pull the power from the supply 
to the wall.
See if tearing still occurs.

Assuming the power generated by the UPS is correct, and all machines are 
on same local power grid, there might be a frequency anomaly.
I'm not an electrical engineer, but power can do crazy things given the 
right circumstances.

If you are using linux, see if modifying your SNA/UXA settings changes 
things. Google how to change these settings for your OS.
