I upgraded everything except one NVMe.

Also read what I actually wrote. Full offline installs always.

And linux would be an option except Nvidia.

Its not a problem anymore. Nvidia Drivers work fine now.

Can confirm, have an old entertainment PC with an NVidia card. I converted it to Linux, and it's fine.

They don't.

Just went through another round of Proxmox-> NixOS-> EndeavourOS-> Windows11, because of Nvidia.

What problem are you facing with NVIDIA?. Are you using noveau or nvidia properity drivers?

[–] dog@suppo.fi 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Nvidia open drivers.

Wayland has rendering glitches (most notably with steam) and X11 has constant micro-flickering that kills my eyes.

Yep, open drivers have problems but nvidia proprietary drivers work fine. I use it daily. EDIT: Fixed spelling

Poprietary*

Such a weird word, don't blame you for misspelling it. I just kept reading a different word there.

Proprietary*

Besides magic or the possibility you erred however. On a purely theoretical and divorced from your situation to be perfectly clear: How?

If you truly did all you did and re-built how did they still peg you as Theseus after you rebuilt your ship do you reckon?

[–] dog@suppo.fi 1 points 8 months ago

The only thing that shouldn't have anything to do with it was the NVMe.

Wiped clean several times over with sanitization and several linux installs, but it's the only old part, and only tie-in.
