Shouldn't be a problem anymore, was only an issue with firmware when the card was super new

What version of mint? Why are they so incredibly behind? Hasn't been an issue on other distros for like a year

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

The latest LTS, currently 21.3

Mints default channel is based on Ubuntu LTS

So is my distro pop os 22.04, no issues

Pop!_os ships with specific kernel tweaks to make it play nicer with GPUs

Applause to them, even if that's all they're doing. For personal computing you can basically always count on Pop!_os to work no matter your hardware configuration (within reason, 32-bit machines aren't really something you need to consider anymore)
