    yeah … as you can see in one of my other comments, I already joined the asus-linux discord and asked the “same” question (really, nearly with the exact same words…) and got , unfortunately, absolutely no reaction to it (besides on comment about “you need to disable the nouveau driver”)…

      Lots of people to the time to reply here and at kbin.

      It probably will not hurt to also ask on https://superuser.com/ https://stackexchange.com/ and Reddit linuxquestions or another appropriate subreddit. To me it seems like Discord is similar like IRC : questions will get snowed under after others write newer things and your reading audience is likely decreasing.

      And a question : What are your plans with Linux on your desktop ?

      • Gaming ?
      • Coding ?
      • Reading books and watching videos ?
      • Web surfing ?
      • Social media ?

      If you are interested in learning more Linux then a refurbished laptop is a good start to run Linux natively without a dual boot.

        Don‘t get me wrong, I‘m not complaining at all, in contrary, I am enormous grateful for any help I get.
        I posted alread in reddit as well - subreddits r/Nobara, r/linux4noobs and r/linuxquestions
        Asus-Linux has a thready-like area in their discord „general-issues“, where I made the thread…

        At first it is to learn how everything behaves, test my use-cases to see, if linux could become an all-dayer for me - that would be the main goal - until then the dual-boot to have a fallback option.

          Cool. 👍

          In that case, VirtualBox and other emulators could be useful to look into. And WSL may be limited (I’ve read) but also useful. Never tried WSL but a friend of mine is happy with it.

            yeah, already played around with VirtualBox and WSL, but there are use-cases (e.g. in gaming) where just an emulation can’t really show what’s possible and what not, that’s why I would love to have the dualboot, so I can reliably test everything without any excuses like “runs probably bad because of emulation”
