I am dual booting PopOS and Windows 11.
PopOS has had a surprisingly high number of instability issues and random freezes.
I considered the possibility that the build is the problem, but it’s the same nvidia LTS 22.02 build that I used with the 5800x.
Windows runs fine.
If I didn’t rely on cuda, I’d probably use github’s code spaces for programming and just stay in windows, or run a VM.
- unxdfa 4y agoWas the same for me then. It’s clearly not year of the Linux desktop yet then.
- PartiallyTyped 4y agoAmd has been great on Linux, both gpu and cpu drivers, and the linux user base has been increasing at a rate sufficient to cut into windows’ segment.
- mhitza 4y ago> PopOS has had a surprisingly high number of instability issues and random freezes. Is by any chance your disk encrypted? That's the only (major) reason nowadays why I hear about freezes in Linux.
- PartiallyTyped 4y agoNo, my disk was unencrypted, it was a routine installation with distro defaults. I tried Manjaro that was a horrific experience from the get-go. It's possible that a lot of this in Pop_OS is related to wayland and gnome. The previous machine run a 5800x with a 1080ti, this runs a 12700k with a 3090ti, same distro otherwise.
