I am on an ION and annoyingly, yeah, I see tearing also.

I have that disabled:

Section "Extensions"
    Option         "Composite" "Disable"
EndSection

So I did this an analyzed the xorg.conf changes that it did make, just
for giggles.  The only meaningful difference was that it moved:

    Option         "TripleBuffer" "True"
    Option         "ModeDebug" "true"

from the Device section to the Screen section.  I don't really know how
relevant that change might be.
