RESOLVE SCREEN TEARING
Intel HD 3000 graphics will sometimes show tearing during video playback or other fast movement on the screen.
To resolve this, enter the following commands in the Terminal:
sudo mkdir /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
echo -e 'Section "Device" \n Identifier "Intel Graphics" \n Driver "Intel" \n Option "TearFree" "true" \nEndSection' | sudo tee /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
Restart the computer to make the settings active.
