From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Which Ryzen CPU do you have? Most of the existing desktop parts for Ryzen don't have onboard graphics, which could make things difficult for you.
I can't remember exactly but my mother board is a ROG board and in the about of my system it shows I have two cards. I currently have it set to prioritize the Nvidia card for the limited amount of gaming I can do now.
Interesting. It would still probably be helpful if you posted the output of
lscpu, which should give some information about what processor you have.One other thing that could be important, but I'm not sure about, is that I know in the past Nvidia has been restrictive about allowing consumer cards to do what they consider enterprise level things, like GPU passthrough. It has been awhile since I was looking into it closely, though, so things may be different now.
You were right actually, I then decided to try it on my laptop which has an Intel CPU and when I tried to make Ubuntu use the onboard card it wouldn't boot. I'm now trying to do it with Manjaro but idk.
