Strangely when I look at bazzite for my laptop it asks about my graphics drivers but it seems to list desktop drivers. So my laptop has a 940mx. Can I use the bazzite for gtx 9xx given its the desktop driver for the same time period?

Yeah, the “Nvidia (GTX 9xx-10xx Series)” should be the correct driver for your GPU. It seems that both desktop and notebook GPUs used the same architecture in this case.
I think the difference is that Bazzite chooses the open source Nvidia kernel driver for the newer GPUs. That one doesn’t support the GTX 900 series, so you’ll get the older proprietary kernel driver.
thanks. I feel more confident now to give it a shot.
