Sure, but the original context was a new user wanting to try Linux on their gaming laptop.

And I was giving a heads up regarding Nvidia graphics and only Nvidia graphics. I know what I wrote.

Sure...?

[–] Gadg8eer@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It kind of does matter, from what I understand. nVidia's closed-source laptop chip drivers were apparently a huge headache for Linux gaming.

[–] kadup@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Yep, and they're still quite troublesome. But installing Nvidia drivers is not the only problematic aspect of an immutable distro, so it doesn't matter at all if Bazzite makes it easy as far as my point goes.
