    I installed Linux Mint three days ago. Nvidia drivers got installed automatically and I was able to load up steam and play right away. No idea what this meme is talking about

    It ain’t like it used to be. Just upgraded my machine to an Nvidia for the first time in like 10+ years.

    sudo apt install nvidia
    

    After a reboot it was smooth as hell. I remember the dark ages. I remember fucking with X.org settings. 😐

      Be happy that you live in the days where installing Nvidia drivers is as easy as it is right now… There were… darker times.

    I did it on Arch and no problems!

    Arch, BTW.

    Also, I’m told it’s going to really fail at some point, but so far, pacman -Syu has worked like a charm.
