Heya! I’m looking to install Linux for the first time on parts from my old pc builds to use as a media centre and multiplayer gaming system in my living room. Something with as clean as possible interface with room for customization would be cool. Oh and support for my old nvidia gpu.
I’m also looking for general tips and advice for beginners if anyone has some to share.
@BroBot9000 cool. Thanks @alt for the link to Jovian, this might an opportunity to tinker with NixOS… Do you know how nvidia cards is supported ? (nouveau driver is ok for my kind of use).
@flashgnash thanks for reminding me the Pop_OS option… do you know if you can configure Steam to start on big picture mode to start on boot ?
I’m on NixOS using the beta drivers and it does everything as far as I can tell. DLSS, ray tracing all work and performance is the same as windows with the same settings. I don’t think I ever need to go back to windows.
