Input Lag fix

Compositing

If you're experiencing input lag (assuming you're using OpenTabletDriver), then the one at fault is probably compositing, which is enabled by default on many desktop environments.

If you're using Lutris to run osu!, you can disable it from the rule as you can see here:

Otherwise, depending on your DE:

  • GNOME: Compositing is disabled on fullscreen apps by default.
  • KDE Plasma: Go to Settings > KWin scripts > Install from KDE Store > Download Autocomposer.
  • XFCE: Go to Window Manager > Tweaks and disable display compositing.

If you're still experiencing lag, then refer at the section below.

Wayland

First of all, check whether you're on Wayland or X11 with this command:

echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

If you're on Wayland, then refer to this and set tweaks for Artist Mode as written there.
