    If you have a system with nVidia and you want to run Linux, just use Pop!_OS and call it a day.

        Yes, 100% agree. All I meant is that at least you don’t have to fight the install.

        They run them through QA at least and work directly with Nvidia to fix any issues they notice. They dont catch everything of course but its still good.

      Funny enough, popos ships with version 475, which is ancient. You still want to upgrade to 525 if you want Vulkan 1.3 support; I.e for bottles gaming, which needs Vulkan 1.3

        It updates to the latest immediately. I shut down my laptop (the one with nVidia) but I’m fairly certain the driver was 530+. I know it was 527 not so long ago. All you have to do is your regularly scheduled “sudo apt upgrade”.
