Intel integrated graphics tearing in Gnome 3/Shell


I recently purchased a new laptop that has an Intel integrated graphics chip as part of its graphics arsenal, and found it was tearing slightly in Gnome 3/Cinnamon.

The solution, happily turns out to be very simple.

sudo nano /etc/environment
Append the following the the end of the file
CLUTTER_PAINT=disable-clipped-redraws:disable-culling
ctrl+x to quit and save

Log out or reboot. Done!
