Edit: “Updating to the legacy 580xx drivers doesn’t show me a desktop anymore”, just in case someone else can stumble upon this by searching something similar.
Thanks to @[email protected] and @[email protected] I did try fixing it out of curiosity. I had forgotten to install linux-headers. Hopefully someone who actually has the same problem as me, and needs to fix it, can use the tips given in the comments. On my end, I just had to install linux-headers and one reboot later it worked.
Always check if you have all needed packages and don’t just “remember” that you had them installed.
how is it? I heard it’s a good hardware but terrible drivers, at least on windows. I don’t know the state of intel GPU drivers on Linux.
It’s quite an upgrade from my previous setup so I cannot tell you if it is good since my comparison is a 1050ti… But they’ve also made improvements to the drivers, even on windows as far as I remember.
