Linux Driver Install | I Messed Up My Graphics Drivers | Should've stayed with Open Source
7Linux Graphics Drivers can sometimes be tricky. There’s not much incentive for hardware vendors to keep drivers up-to-date drivers because Linux is a small portion of the overall operating system market. Watch the wrong approach on
Everything went smooth as far as the install, but as you can tell installing the drivers didn’t go as smoothly as I would’ve liked. Don't spend hours trying to install a driver just to make it worse. You might just not have picked the right distro.
The reason being is that the vendors that create the hardware really don’t have much incentive to come out with drivers for Linux so it becomes an after thought. Which you can’t blame them because only about 2-3% of the market is using Linux as their operating system. So why focus on Linux when you get over 70% just targeting Windows.
Overall, Linux is a great operating system with a lot of loyal people who are putting their time and effort into developing a great free open source operating system so you really can’t knock them for such things as missing drivers. I mean after all they’re developing a complete operating system that can exist on multiple architectures with 1000’s of hardware setups.
