Good news , it is just on their Copilot+ computers for now. For now is likely doing some heavy lifting there, though.

I threw Mint on a partition to test moving away from Windows, and sadly does not play well with my 2080ti. This makes me want to put more effort into getting it to work...

I honestly switched to PopOS, which has an NVidia version with the driver baked in, and it was stable as a rock. ended up just being easier for me. (Much better as a gaming OS all around tbh)

That was the next thing i was going to try. Already have the bootable preview on a drive even. Maybe I'll try that first before diving in to the wild west that is getting nvidia to work.

try $ sudo apt install akmod-nvidia. it's gonna pull in some dependencies and a proprietary driver, and probably break Secure Boot if you have it set up, but that's how i got it to work on Fedora (except i used dnf, of course)

Awesome, thanks for the tip! Hopefully makes less of a headache for me tomorrow

There's a lot of work going into nvidia on linux ATM, so its improving pretty fast, but Also you can get a faster amd GPU with the money you can get from selling your 2080 ti

Well good news, I tried Pop_OS and it worked great, so no need to swap cards. Probably going to spend the day backing up my files and installing it on the full drive today
