@RedCyberLizzie that's a really odd thing to say, nvidia and intel both work fine on Linux @gamingonlinux yeah but the closed source nature of things stop the community from fixing things that they dont, that older hardware gets left behind for no other reason than "its old and we dont wanna support it", so you cant even try to support it in any modern system. @gamingonlinux @RedCyberLizzie Really? From my personal experience almost every time I've had to update gpu drivers with nvidia it borks my entire install :'( @gamingonlinux seperately yes, and mayhaps sometimes together, but last time I tried it, every Update required some amount of reconfiguration, deactivated nvidia on laptops ever since, and now I only buy laptops without nvidia @gamingonlinux That thing is a beast! I love it. I miss the days of having a chunky laptop that doubles as a weapon. @gamingonlinux every time I hear Intel paired with NVIDIA I get flashbacks to my archlinux days with Bumblebee where all of a sudden a driver update sent my system to text-only mode, and I need a glance at linus torvald's famous quote on the issue to snap back to my reality of only using nvidia in Desktop setups where I can avoid Optimus :D |
@gamingonlinux intel and nvidia? Sounds like you dont want stuff to work on linux on your laptop there System76.
