Can’t wait for Doctor Who Season 1, not to be confused with Doctor Who Series 1, or Doctor Who Season 1.

At last, the Year of the Linux Desktop.

NVIDIA’s Debian repo for Cuda has more up to date GPU drivers, if you don’t wanna manually install from the .run file. Documentation here, its not reflected yet in the docs but there’s a Debian 12 repo.

I’m also on NVIDIA, I tried the Plasma 6 Alpha last night (on KDE neon unstable) and to my utter shock, Wayland was pretty goddamn close to flawless.

The biggest advice I can give is to start with something like, as has been mentioned, Linux Mint, but also, don’t buy into the idea that you eventually need to move to a more “advanced” distro. If Mint, or wherever you wind up, works for you, and you have no compelling reason to switch, then don’t. All Linux is Linux, so to speak, the only things that distinguish distros are packages/package managers, default settings/configurations, and pre-installed programs. There’s nothing preventing you from eventually becoming a power-user on a “noob-friendly” distro, if that’s something you desire in the first place.
