  • My GTX 1060 just stopped receiving feature updates in november but it’s still supported with bug fixes and it is a GPU from 2016. There is a good chance your GTX 1650 will be supported for the next 10 years since the architecture is new enough to use the latest RTX drivers


  • Linux and legacy Nvidia cards don’t go well toghether.

    Probably the oldest GPU you want to use is one from the GTX700 series (2014), anything older doesn’t have usable drivers, the official ones are outdated and likely broken with no Wayland support.

    I hate to say this but probably Windows 10 is your best option

    EDIT: I had similar graphical issues on a Mac Mini 2010 running Windows 10, but I fixed it by using an older driver version. If you need the ancient drivers I have, let me know

    Correction: My filesystem is not read only. Dpkg can install .deb packages just fine

    My guess is that I tried to update packages in a specific time that there was a dependency issue in the Debian Unstable repository.

    Cosmic actually compiled and installed perfectly and the system still works and runs stable. It is a problem with Apt

    I’ve been using Debian Unstable for about one year since I wanted Plasma 6 so bad. Even after Trixie came out I didn’t switch back to Stable because it runs good and gets frequent updates.

    The experience was actually quite smooth, better than what my friend has with Kubuntu, which for every distro update has a 50% chance of breaking

    No, I just figured it out. I had to enable a systemd service to test Cosmic. I have disabled it and now dpkg works and I manually installed Aptitude with its dependencies.

    I tried to do an upgrade with Aptitude but it won’t do anything. I’ll look into it more later
