problematic trait of mine: i actually like the Linux NVIDIA graphics driver. it's always worked really well for me, it's fast, it's got good compatibility with games i run under wine, it handled render offload, hotplug, and hot-unplug of GPUs (less so the latter but to an extent) about as well as you can do with Xorg
@whitequark imho 90% of the issues are distros being terrible at packaging and setting stable kernel args, and 10% is whatever the hell laptops keep doing with iGPU-dGPU combos
