All the trouble I never had was with ATI/AMD cards, never with Nvidia.
And they’ll never open source their drivers because they don’t give a shit about half a percent of market share. The only reason they even bother maintaining a free Linux driver is because we provide free testing, which they can use for their professional cards where the big money is.
But I never understood people’s obsession with Nvidia bring open source, it’s not like it’s the only proprietary Linux driver, or the only one with incompatible license etc.
Running windows 10 no issues so far. And heard Wayland has Nvidia issues
Tbf it depends what you do, but some distros just work with Nvidia apparently
Not just Wayland.
Every experience I’ve had so far with running anything Linux on Nvidia hardware has been unpredictable to say the least. Not just personal experience but those around me as well. Somehow it always comes down to driver compatibility issues, and there is a reason Torvalds used such strong words when describing the developer experience in dealing with Nvidia.
And these problems will likely persist until they decide to fully publish the source for their drivers.
