People doing the 30 days linux Challenge are having several problems because of Mint's old packages and technology. Why people still recommend it when there is Fedora and Opensuse with KDE and Gnome?

Bazzite is broken AF on Nvidia right now, with no X11 and no explicit sync driver. I can’t wait to see if driver 555 fixes it.

Edit - 555 is out, and yes it is considerably better.

I just switched it to x11 and it was fine.

I recently picked up an AMD GPU so I re-based to the regular one which was amazingly easy.

Ouch, didn’t realize the Nvidia build was struggling. Hopefully it gets patched up soon.

If there’s a previous commit before the issue is introduced you can pin it and wait to unpin until the issue gets resolved.

I have an Nvidia image and haven’t had these issues. I can run Wayland just fine. I believe they include X11 as well.
