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.

Same here also on a 1080, but with the closed-source drivers. There's some issue they've had for at least the 6ish months I've been using it where with my dual screen setup sometimes hangs. Apparently it's a known bug and they haven't fixed it. It hits me about once every couple of weeks these days. Other than that it has run every game I've tried as well as Windows.
Ah yeah, I know the one you mean. It seems to be intermittently fixed but I've just rolled-back when it causes issues.
It seems better now than it was a few months ago. Back then it actually locked up my machine if I triggered the bug. Now it just temporarily slows things down.
But, I haven't gambled on running a few apps that would regularly trigger it just in case. What's funny is that modern Steam games are no problem, but it's running emulated games using Emulation Station that causes problems. Games from 2024, no problem. Games from 1984? Hey, that's pushing it.
Emulation is a hell of a drug...
