What version of mint? Why are they so incredibly behind? Hasn't been an issue on other distros for like a year

[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 7 months ago

The latest LTS, currently 21.3

Mints default channel is based on Ubuntu LTS

So is my distro pop os 22.04, no issues

Pop!_os ships with specific kernel tweaks to make it play nicer with GPUs

In this case looks like they just go to the basic effort of updating the linux-firmware package

Applause to them, even if that's all they're doing. For personal computing you can basically always count on Pop!_os to work no matter your hardware configuration (within reason, 32-bit machines aren't really something you need to consider anymore)
