Does it choose or do you? I’m curious how the installation process compares to Ubuntu. My install is a little borked because I started with Xorg and AMD and 22.04 and switched to Wayland and Nvidia and 24.04 all around the same time. It works but was a PITA to reconfigure everything. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] UnpopularCrow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (4 children) It will choose for you, but you can select specific drivers if you’d like. I’ve only had to mess with installing specific drivers on edge cases. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] olympicyes@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (3 children) Did you notice if GPU video decoding works in the browser? Eg VP9, h.264? I’d been struggling to get it to work with Wayland and suspect it isn’t possible. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] UnpopularCrow@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago Yea, as the other person mentioned, to my knowledge (which is limited) the video decoding in the browser on Linux tends to be browser and hardware specific. I know it’s gotten easier over the past couple years tho. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Anafabula@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago (1 child) Nvidia doesn't support vaapi, so when I still had an nvidia card I needed to install a compatibility layer like this.
