10, good…ish.

Windows 10 was never really good, its launch was very rocky. Most people just stockholmed their way into liking 10.

most of the pepper

autocorrect moment?

I mean, technically you can install a disc drive onto your computer if you want.

I’ve already tried PEAP (didn’t work), but I swear Linux Lite had a security option for EAP (which did work).

People who are not part of the wealthy elite stealing profits is illegal.

man, even hackers gotta deal with subscription services

masto jumpscare

It’s not an Nvidia problem (no discrete gpu, already checked both Windows and Linux)

Edit: Somehow missed your edit, oops

Also I might try X11, just to see if anything changes.

All that seems to do is force the game into windowed mode and cause heavy artifacting (using gamescope -f doesn’t show the game at all, but it still seems to be running in the background).

Ah, so the issue isn’t VRR then.

Yea, had to live-boot and figure out where Fedora stores the root filesystem so I could chroot in and uninstall the drivers from there.

How do I disable that? KDE’s settings doesn’t seem to have anything about VRR (searching for it leads me to the display setings, but there’s nothing mentioning VRR there either).

Some laptops come in different configurations so looking up specs may be confusing or misleading.

Turns out it really is, huh.

The command inxi -G should list display drivers.

inxi only seems to see the integrated graphics, weird. I’m starting to doubt that her laptop even has a discrete Nvidia card inside…

I followed the manual and it softborked her install :(

So it does! First time seeing a laptop with nvidia graphics, neat.

Edit: is the Dell website wrong? Her laptop doesn’t seem to have anything Nvidia inside it.

Huh, TIL to look up the specs of your laptop when troubleshooting.

Edit: apparently there’s no Nvidia card inside her laptop, despite the fact that Dell says it should.

Better yet, export her shit to Firefox and tell her she’s using that now.

Already tried that, for some reason it won’t copy some of her autofill information (this is stopping her from fully switching over).

What kind pf GPU does she have?

It’s a laptop, so no GPU installed. Turns out I’m a beeg dum stoopid, apparently my mom’s laptop comes with nvidia graphics. Turns out I’m an even beeger dumer stoopider, her computer shows no signs of having anything Nvidia inside it.

What drivers are installed?

idk, how do you check?

The ultimate mom dad or grandma distro is Linux Mint, might be worth trying it out to see if it has the same issue or not.

I was considering installing Mint for her, but decided against it because of the recent unverified flatpak controversy (she unfortunately still uses chrome, and I would rather have her distro manage all her updates for her); but I think I might install Mint on an external hard drive just to quickly see if any of her issues persist.

Edit: accidentally forgot an I
