If it was just the ddx, you would observe the same tearing with the
rotated setup as well. The question here would be whether it is tearing
or flicker? Tearing would just be the usual frontbuffer rendering
artifact. However, flicker could be misrendering of a DRI client (seeing
the backbuffer etc) or a clock timing issue (pipe underruns and whatnot).
Using a rotated framebuffer would disable pageflipping, and prevent the
historically common glitches when flipping. (Historically? That's
hysterical!)
