I'd like to try to think of this as Nvidia making a step in the right direction. But given their track record and complete disregard for anything consumer facing a this point, I'm willing to bet this is more so them getting up to speed on hosting apps in the cloud running on Nvidia hardware in Linux environments rather than juicing up the existing consumer facing appliances and products (edit, and future products?).
I set up a smart plug to turn a lamp on when I started a print on my bambu printer and then it turns it off when it finishes. More so testing the automation stuff, but I eventually want to do more things.
Agreed, using Mint after dropping Windows. Haven't turned back. Have a piece of work software that requires windows to some degree, so I've installed Bottles to assist with that and it's been pretty good for me so far.
Is that a per-app thing that can be done in Mint? Pretty much only get tearing in firefox when playing video, and I tried the 'layers.acceleration.force-enabled true' setting in about:config for firefox, but that didn't really make a difference.
I'm thinking its either nvidia on linux being nvidia on linux, or it not liking mixed resolutions and refresh rates. But really the only noticeable tearing I get is in firefox when playing video like youtube or something.
Made the switch this weekend :) From Win 11 to Mint 22. Haven't run into any real issues really. I have the occasional screen tear on some videos in firefox though. Haven't searched around enough yet to figure that out, but otherwise all good.
Heck yeah, been playing this too. It's so good. Such a great community collection that's packaged extremely well.
