Hey all,

So I'm dual booting Windows 8 and Debian GNU/Linux (Windows 8 came the
laptop so I use it for gaming) but thought it would be more convenient
to run the games in Linux and so was setting it up in Debian.

The laptop has one of those annoying dual card setups so I got bumblebee
up and running. I then tried playing StarCraft II, which I just copied
from the Windows partition, but noticed that the video was stuttering at
what appears to be a consistent frequency.

On the same day I noticed that the same thing was happening with video
and that if I try moving a window around in small circle it also
happens. 

This isn't something that happens in Windows at all, but I'm not sure or
how long it's been happening in Debian. I'm at a bit of a loss of what
to even google for.

Has anyone else come across this?
