Yes, I’m aware that Nvidia supports Linux for CUDA. Linux is a very popular headless environment for this reason.
I was responding to your response that Nvidia drivers for HiDPi and other display issues are subpar with “well, everyone who is serious about using Linux on the desktop uses AMD.”
First, that’s not true (as evidenced by the many people who do CUDA workloads in Linux). Second, my overarching point is that it’s strikes me as being really dismissive to say “well just don’t use the hardware you like/want/need if you want a good Linux on the desktop experience.”
- shmerl 6y agoNvidia's problems are holding the progress of Linux desktop back, so I totally recommend avoiding it for anyone who is using Linux already for that reason alone (besides various other reasons). But it is usable, just your use cases will be more limited. Performance when it works is OK.
