Agreed, Ununtu is way worse. Especially when Ubuntu performed a background update, and the NVIDIA GPU stops working properly. It happened several times to me, and a few times the GPU drivers were so hard to update that a reinstall of Ubuntu was quicker/easier.
This never happened to me in Windows.
- archontes 4y agoI can echo this experience. Upgrade to the next major version? No GPU for me. I spent an hour trying to fix it before rolling back to my last backup.
- rosmax_1337 4y agoI also suffer from this, using NVidia graphics cards and Ubuntu. The computer fails to start the x-server once or twice each month, because of an update. Reinstalling or updating the package "linux-headers-$(uname -r)" fixes the problem for me. You need to use Ctrl+Shift+F2/3/4/5 and switch to another tty inorder to perform these updates, as the failed x-server start leaves you with a black screen.
