2026 is starting with half-baked NVidia drivers and missing functionality on linux? I am so surprised... did you try 17 different previous versions to get it running in true NV-Linux fashion?
This stuff has been flawless on AMD systems for a while a couple of years now, with the exception of the occasional archaic app that only runs on X11 (thus shoved in a container).
- ErroneousBosh 9mo agoDoes AMD support CUDA yet? Because otherwise you can't use it for video editing.
- NekkoDroid 9mo agoAsk NV to open up CUDA and then maybe AMD can start even thinking about supporting it :)
- rerdavies 9mo agoOr you could just not use Linux. lol
- NekkoDroid 9mo agoI'd rather use Linux than NV
- ErroneousBosh 9mo agoIf you want to edit video, you need to use Linux, and NVidia.
- popcornricecake 9mo agoFlawless on AMD? Absolutely not. 2-3 years ago there used to be a amdgpu bug that froze my entire laptop randomly with no recourse beyond the 4 second power button press. After that was fixed, it sometimes got stuck on shutdown. Now it doesn't do that randomly anymore, but yet all it takes to break it, is to turn off the power to my external monitor (or the monitor powering off by itself to save energy) or unplugging it, after which it can no longer be used without rebooting and then sometimes it gets stuck on shutdown.

- tuna74 9mo agoClarification: The AMD iGPU driver (or Chrome) on Ubuntu 24.04 has bugs on your hardware. You could try a newer and different distro (just using a live-USB) to see if that has been fixed.
- rerdavies 9mo agoMe too. I have the freezes-on-shutdown bug on my AMD video adapter.
