Did you just espouse Linux hardware support as a paragon of quality?
...wow.
- mkonecny 12y agoPerhaps you haven't used Linux in a while? It runs on almost any hardware I can throw at it. Just upgraded to a brand new laptop, and just swapped in my old SSD, and everything just worked.
- et1337 12y agoI'm running it right now. It's great when it just works, but that's rare in my experience, especially when it comes to video drivers. I'm praying for the light of gaben to descend upon the driver ecosystem and make *nix gaming a thing.
- wyager 12y ago>Did you just espouse Linux hardware support as a paragon of quality? Please re-read my comment. I simply said that Linux drivers tend to be better constructed than Windows drivers. That doesn't imply that Linux drivers are particularly good. I'll say without too much conviction that the best drivers I've seen have come from the BSD family, but I don't have a lot of experience there.
- et1337 12y agoSorry, my snarky comment was more aimed at the linux problem of driver installation and configuration complexity, and lack of drivers entirely. I'm way unqualified to comment on the quality of individual drivers.
