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.

Thats why i never buy their shit after having one laptop with one of their graphics.
Worst part? I'm still using that laptop, im doing troubleshooting right now.
Anyone else?
This is why I haven't switched to Linux yet. I have a gaming laptop and a desktop pc is not an option at the moment.
If your laptop is on Nvidia then it might be a problem, just stay away from that brand going forward, and from online games with bad anticheats, and you're golden to go full Linux.
This is not accurate at all. It always works using Ubuntu's GUI and you don't have to reboot or anything. Only issues I had was that you have to reinstall those drivers each time you upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu
I have upgraded from driver 525 to 535 on 3 different systems (work PC/laptop and personal PC). Every single time the screen would go black and I had to force reboot.
This is absolutely accurate, at least for some people I guess.
