      very impressed with linux gaming now

      my last try was 10+ years ago

      games are literally running better on my (getting) tired desktop, and I play Grim Fandango on a Ryzen 3 laptop with 4Gb Ram which could barely boot windoze

        I play Grim Fandango on a Ryzen 3 laptop with 4Gb Ram

        Grim Fandango Remastered, right? 'Cause it’s not exactly impressive if its the original, give-or-take WINE maintaining compatibility with old Win9x libraries…

        I’ve been meaning to get around to playing that game for 30+ years, and the remastered version for 10.

        Which card? There’s a few distros that handle installing the drivers for you (Nobara and Bazzite spring to mind)

        If it’s an issue of outdated hardware it can be tricky but doable. I have an old Thinkpad with an Nvidia Quadro K2000 that I got working with MX Linux without too much hassle
