I use either prime-run or DRI_PRIME=1
When Void releases a new iso with 6.18 as current and 6.12 as lts, if itās still broken Iāll report it as a bug. I could also report it on Arch.
Worst case: switch to current kernel, just do not have good GPU acceleration.
I have a newer laptop which has a more recent supported GPU, I just prefer using this one (larger better screen) so itās really no big deal.
Wellā¦the forum here is one of the, if not the best, of Linux forumsā¦Do not be a stranger & stay in touch!!!
I rebuild laptops (refurbished off of eBay) & have been seeing HPās with newer nVidia hardware in 17.3 in showing up in the $100 to $200 rangeā¦some with touch screens & other nice bitsā¦.
That is a fact!!! This forum is one of the best ![]()
I was just cruising & found this one (needs some repairānew top panel (keyboard & panel) & a batteryā¦not very hard to doā¦.) https://www.ebay.com/itm/365988161088
That one has a backlight keyboardā¦..
The ābigā problem that the ānewerā HP laptops have is being very weak around the screen hinges with the bottom case offā¦you will find lots of them with ābrokenā screen hinge mounting areas ā¦..
I normally get very good with Super Glue Gel & small needle-nose pliersā¦..if itās one of mineā¦.
Iāve heard good things about it. I suppose Iāve also heard bad things and indifferent things like all linux distros. Thereās so many good ones to choose from today, whatever you pick will likely be great.

Update: I did a clean install of pure Arch and have the 470xx drivers installed without errors. Iād like to say they are working, but alas, glmark2 score is half that of the same on Void, so I still have some issues to sort out ![]()
void the gap!

After deleting Win10, I was wondering what to do with the now empty drive⦠and then Ganymede dropped.
yeah, dual boot: Void and EOS
I could not stay away.
Freedoooom!
