So NVIDIA just doesn’t cut it on Linux/proton I’ve come to learn. Looking at the best bang//buck, it this the AMD card people are flocking to? 7800 XT maybe?

    Can’t say I’ve experienced any such issues on recent AMD UMA or dGPU systems; power management is pretty well documented and generally reliable without any need for user intervention. Curious as to which platforms were problematic in your experience for my own learning; it’s likely that anything pre-polaris was kind of wonky

    I’ve also not had any issues with Intel integrated graphics on Linux, but ANV on Arc is a bit messy with translation layers like vkd3d right now. The gen12 (DG1, RKL and later) driver & technology stack appears to be quite different.

      No idea but a Thinkpad T495 with AMD Vega mobile graphics. Dont remember the generation.

      Fedora + systemd + KDE Plasma had always issues waking up from sleep. Needed to force shutdown a lot.

        huh, interesting. Picasso (3000)? Raven Ridge (2000)?

        Similar if not practically identical chassis to my T14 Gen2a. My one is Cezanne based and the experience with fedora/wayland/gnome has been perfectly smooth. Did you spot any logs relating to those issues?
