  • I’m using GTX980 on CachyOS with non open 580.142 driver which gets installed automatically if you are on an older Nvidia card, it works perfectly fine.

    Nouveau driver crashes when anything more complex than a wallpaper is trying to render (literally, even context menus and taskbar icon names).

    Did not try the open version.

    Worth mentioning, Cachy and most other distros seem to use Nouveau in their live ISOs, so you’ll have to use nomodeset on Cachy and an alternative way to boot without GPU drivers on other distros.












  • It’s not an issue that needs to be fixed by us. It’s not impossible to price digital goods differently in different countries, but companies would rather close up shop than let you buy a product cheaper than in your region. At the end of the day - the lowest they can price it is how much it realistically costs and the rest is extra fees for living in more developed countries, but they are greedy and don’t care about consumers one bit.

    Also the digital segregation you are describing is already rolling out anyway with ID verification, that won’t solve the problems you think it will however.
