[–] SoupBrick@pawb.social 7 points 1 year ago (1 child) I'll give that a shot, thanks for the advice! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago FYI, Nvidia drivers can be a bit hit and miss. It takes a little bit of fidgeting to find a combination of kernel and Nvidia that works. And when you do, use timeshuft to make a restore point so that in the future you have a functioning setup to work with. And when you find a combination that works well, stick to it. The "Omg, new driver is out"-reaction will only cause issues. For me, Nvidia 535 is the one that has been working out the best. I think I'm running something newer now, but it's still alright. permalink fedilink source parent
