people always complain about nvidia drivers on linux, but personally my experience has never required anything more than sudo apt install nvidia-driver
Arch is similarly this easy. I think where I usually see the most people complaining is when a new shiny version of the driver has come out and they try to update manually, breaking system packages and borking their system.
I’m not saying I have personally done this before. Nope. Not saying that at all…
Returning Arch user (absent since 2008/9) here, using Plasma Wayland. Overall a positive experience but there’s lots of little finicky things to setup, and I haven’t tried using linux-zen like in my EndeavorOS work laptop, I imagine that’s a bit more finicky with DKMS.
Nothing out of the ordinary for Arch thus far though, just manual configuration.
@DaPorkchop_ @Echolot nice
It works fine on a desktop with a single GPU mostly. Though I have had issues with multi monitor setup at work with xfce and xorg. I actually had a better experience with gnome and wayland, in terms of multi monitor support.
That said, all my own non work computers I use AMD/intel these days though. It just works now. I did have a bad experience years ago with an nvidia optimus laptop, where I couldn’t use the displayport without permanently enabling the nvidia GPU, killing battery life.
