bpeugh Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I have tried everyway imaginable of disabling beamsync but each time I do, I restart, I look at the number and it is 0, I run Xbench, get the same score and when I look again the number is back to 1 even if I have repaired permissions.

Rammjet Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 If you are doing it from QuartzSimple/QuartzDebug, you must Force Quit the app. If you Quit normally, it resets the values as it quits. If you re-run the app to check it and then quit, it will be reset as well. You can enable QE2D and disable BeamSync via Terminal: sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver Quartz2DExtremeEnabled true sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver Compositor -dict deferredUpdates 0 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/32423-beamsync-disable-not-working/#findComment-227560 Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpeugh Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 Didn't work under 10.4.8 new install. Installed 10.4.7 repack and the 10.4.8 update. After do it in the terminal it still resets the 0 to a 1 after a restart but got the Q2D to Yes by changing it in the plist editor.

Rammjet Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Yea but its turn on Quartz2DExtreme permanently It's there any way to turn it for every boot? Script or something. The "defaults write" command writes the values to the windowserver.plist and should stay set for reboots. Works like that for me and lots of other people. If you use QuartzSimple or QuartzDebug to look at the settings, when you quit, the settings will be undone. You must Force-Quit to keep the settings from changing. To verify the settings, use the Apple Plist Editor (from Xcode) or download the trial of PlistEditPro and look at the window.plist file (/Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist). The BeamSync setting is under Compositor. You can even make the settings using those apps. To reverse the settings, use one of the apps, or perform the defaults write commands, but change "true" to "false" and "0" to "1".
