 9I have been experiencing some issues with Intel® Integrated HD Graphics 3000
10under Debian 12 with Xorg and i3. Using `picom` compositor didn't help. To fix
11this issue create new file `/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf` as root and put
12the following in the file.

14```txt
15Section "Device"
16  Identifier "Intel Graphics"
17  Driver "intel"
18  Option "TearFree" "true"
19EndSection
20```

22Reboot the system and that should be it.
