1 year ago I tried to get into Linux, I shit you not I spent 3 weeks trying to install Ubuntu and failing because I had a Nvidia graphics card and my cpu didn't have on board graphics, ended up buying a new CPU just to install Ubuntu then realised I could have just installed fedora 😂😂😂😂

Ubuntu sucks ass, yes I was allowing proprietary drivers, I spent 3 weeks trying every workaround known to man, nothing worked.

had the same problem except with radeon graphics, a brand new one

zorin OS is built off ubuntu and they make the same mistake of having the FUCKING METAPACKAGE kernel

the usb of their installer was the first one i tried that when i show the system settings it was running the GPU, not CPU rendered or some other nonsense

ubuntu kernel policies suck a giant fat donkey dick

one key thing, you find a USB installer that is based on ubuntu, and the live settings info page says the GPU is recognised, unplug the network, before you install

then, after that, remove the linux-blablabla-generic package after it boots, that bitch pulls in new versions that will break your install and give you black screen pain
