  • It is just to get newer versions of the proprietary drivers faster, and to have a more similar environment as developers. (Like if a feature of the driver is dependent on a new API just added to nearly most recent kernel)

    Kernel updates can bring better support for different hardware which as well can influence how well the GPU drivers work, like, improving them.

    😇but nice to hear that it works on your machine well 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻


  • 😄yes, but to be honest, I, for example, learned practically all coding I can by reading code together with AI
    And as it is code, I see what happens when I compile/execute it and can uncover hallucinations like this.
    Of course, my code is at first vibe programming with many small commits, but as soon as it is working, I clean up by rebasing and double checking all commits to be consistent.
    And it generally helps me well with my Linux issues, as it is pretty good parsing the arch wiki

    To be fair, you most likely have nvidia in your PC.

    As I see it, the distos you tried ether have a gui to install those proprietary drivers, but are on old kernel or no GUI to install them, but a recent kernel.

    Installing nvidia drivers on endeavourOS is very simple and you always get the newest fixes after writing “yay” into console.

    Installing apps is as easy as “yay [desired app]” and then choose out of the list. (Just don’t take the “-git” versions but the “-bin” versions 🤭)

    After that, install steam out of multilib and make sure to pick the right vulkan package (based on GPU driver in use)

    All this nvidia stuff is so complicated on Linux, because nvidia is not caring enough about Linux yet.

    Only way to fix that is adoption.







  • People just don’t want to confess that they are feared from that little black box that apparently kills your whole machine, if you just type a wrong letter having a terminal open. 🤗

    As always,
    not enough education in society.

    If more people would be brave to test it, more people would see that they can interact like this, better. And some, like me, appreciate the hard work GUI designers do, to make stuff more intuitive in the cost of efficiency

    I love GUI with integrated terminal, tho, like dolphin
