From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yes, im doing le funy Meme. And yes, I am an autist, with some signs towards something adhd adjacent

I first tried Linux Mint when I was 12, eventually changed to Ubuntu when I was 13 or 14 because I saw the Windows 11 copilot button, installed arch at late 14, and got to gentoo when I was 15.

Can anyone beat me to it?

That's odd. I've been running OpensSUSE Tumbleweed with a Ryzen 9 5950X and RTX 3080 with no issues. I don't know what would be making yours, with similar hardware, function differently unless it's the laptop stuff for dynamically switching between onboard graphics and the GPU.

Even when I use the MUX switch and use only the dedicated card it stills stutters badly on 2d graphics only. It's really strange.
