Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

Are you using a NVIDIA GPU? Because that bug is their stupid driver doing shady shit and switching the TTY randomly for absolutely no reason.

You’re basically still logged in, but in another TTY (think of these as the “browser tabs” of the kernel graphics stack/DRM layer), and to recover you have to start pressing ctrl+alt+F1 up to ctrl+alt+Fx (usually either F1/F2 works for me) incrementally to find the right “tab” again.

I’m on Fedora workstation, but I recognised what you’re describing immediately and Bazzite is derived from Fedora Sileverblue. So I thought I’d share. Might be worth a shot to someone I guess?

Yeah, 40-series. That tracks, because sounds kept playing while stuck on the black screen.
