Thats why i never buy their shit after having one laptop with one of their graphics.

Anyone else?

It always blows my mind how much broken shit Ubuntu gets away with and all their users blame literally everything else without ever once even considering it's Ubuntu that's to blame.

Packages having a hard coded version name and then installing a completely different version is a Ubuntu repo classic.

The vast majority of nvidia system breakage complaints I see seem to come from users of Ubuntu or it's derivatives. I've been on arch based distros for 6 years now and every pc or laptop I've owned in that time has been nvidia and I have never had any problems.

Similar experience here with Arch. The only time I broke stuff was when trying out alternative kernels but even then all you'd have to do is use nvidia-dkms and it works fine with multiple kernels installed.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
