(SOLVED) Add command line

[devvan]

When I scroll in firefox, I get some tearing, I think itś called. I got this from a friend, which I write/copy to terminal.
It works, but it is gone everytime I restart my computer, how can I make it permanently?
And does anyone know what it does?

nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceCompositionPipeline = On }"

You could make a script to run this such as:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceCompositionPipeline = On }"

exit

Right click the script and choose Properties/Permissions and choose to make it executable.
If that works for you then go to menu/Startup Applications click the Add button, give it a name
and for the Command browse to that script

This site explains how to make it permanent by adding the line to your etc/X11/xorg.conf

Thank you both.

Edit: I cant not make a backup of that file, because it is not there, according to console.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf

Normally the nvidia driver setup writes an xorg.conf file.

What does find /etc/X11/ -iname '*xorg*' return.

If you don't already have an xorg.conf then use the method described by all4.

It did not give me anything, only the line with my username/computername like it does when I start the terminal, no output.
I'll try it out.

OK, then you don't have an xorg.conf file for some reason so use all41's method
