Hi All;
Apologies in advance for cross posting, I posted this question to the Fedora KDE list as well.
I just purchased the below system online from Lenovo, did a bit of research and it seems like it should all work but I cut the research short and ordered it mostly because I have a serious patience deficiency
My main question is around the NVIDIA card, for the past
several years I've been running laptops with integrated intel
graphics and the default nouveau driver and things 'just work'.
I don't really need high performance graphics like gaming or
high intensive graphics operations, just standard business
usage.
Does anyone have any experience / insight per the below NVIDIA card and Fedora (I'll be running Fedora 26 - KDE Spin)? Is it likely I'll need to run NVIDIA drivers? If so is there an
easy setup without needing to install the native driver each
time a new kernel is released? Maybe something like the
akmod-nvidia drivers?
Also, is there anything in the below specs that may be cause for concern?
Thanks in advance for any advice...
