I've been distro hopping the last 2 weeks, and I was amazed by Nobara, it's not my first Linux experience since I used ubuntu mate almost full time in my old laptop and only switched to windows because I got a gaming rig and wanted to juice that rtx card. But Nobara does a lot of things other distros won't. For starters it was one of the few distros that detected my wifi OOB, all your drives are mounted on startup so you can easily access all your windows files, also video playback is smooth as hell, I tried playing 4k files on the other distros I tried (a bunch of ubuntus, mint, zorin, pop os...) and none could play heavy video files, even after installing nvidia drivers and codecs, Nobara did it flawlessly and as I said almost everything OOB, no tinkering, just installing your favorite apps and enjoy.
I have an amd card and have had zero issues switching over to nobara from windows. I've had such a nice experience with nobara that I'm never going back to windows.
I have been using Nobara 40 for 2 weeks now ditching Windows. I've used it in the past for very short periods of time due to various problems. This last time I decided to format every single one of my SSDs (7 of them total) as BTRFS drives whereas in the past they've all remained as NTFS. NOT A SINGLE PROBLEM since the changeover to BTRFS. All of my games run perfect now, in the past hardly a game would run, constant crashing and freezing, etc., etc. I do not miss Windows one bit. I've now put it behind me and I see a great future ahead with Linux whether it's Nobara for a few months, Arch or Zorin. Between Nobara 40 and macOS I have absolutely no need for Windows.
I tried nobara and I had issues with my usb hard drives, also tried gaming with the witcher 3 wild hunt and world of tanks and the mouse wasn't working. I don't get these issues with linuxmint. I had high hopes with nobara. I might try them again in a year or two years time. Hopefully it would be better by then
Yeah i see two types of people: - ones for which nobara works like a dream and they reccomend it everywhere -ones for who nobara is a buggy mess, i was one of the people in the 2nd group, and went back to arch like i always do when i distrohop lol
All you need to do to fix your stuttering in Wayland is install the Nvidia 555.42 drivers. I run it like a champ with RTX 4070, Ryzen 7 3700X and 64mg ram on a Samsung 980 pro nvme drive. I use an ultra-wide monitor running 1440p on high to ultra settings
help me I can't use my full monitor hertz on whatever Linux version I use I can only set my monitor refreshing rate to 240 when the resolution is set to 1920×1080. if I lower the resolution I am only able to use 60/75hz. whyyyy?
@@LusantisuperBRsame here, I'm using intel at the moment but I'll switch to AMD later this year. My refresh rate is max 50 but my monitor can 165 and I don't understand. Is the same with different distro, whatever I change max 50.. Frustrating! Hope you can give me an advice
@@unleashed_ts I cannot help much because probably it is a driver issue. All AMD graphics cards work amazingly, Intel integrated *normally* works great, Intel Arc is still a hit or miss can work pretty well sometimes or pretty bad other times. Nvidia is the most complicated one, you can have a perfect experience for some applications or hell on earth and there is no solution for it. Maybe I can help you more if you give me more details about your installation, but I cannot guarantee I can solve it. What is your distro? What is your graphics card? Does this problem happen on windows?
@@LusantisuperBR hey, thanks a lot for trying at least. It's an old intel 5, at the moment I'm on cachy os until two weeks I was on Nobara. I've changed my display , it was a Dell G2422HS and now Samsung Odyssey G5 C34 curved. With Dell I've hat 120 since I have that Samsung I have just 50. Same settings, same hardware just by switching to Samsung.
I've been using Nobara for a few months now and I can safely recomend it for People that want to leave Windows.
I'd love to leave Windows but for some reason NONE of my Steam games run. They all fail to launch.
@@CoderSal-XIII Is the drive you keep them in an NTFS format?
@@clanc5340 It is yes.
@@CoderSal-XIIIdid you activate proton ?
@@CoderSal-XIII you have to enable compatibility from Steam settings for them to work

once all games run online then i delete my windows and just use linux.
@@kangerer8886 Oh, I never thought about offloading windows to an external disk lol
like cloud gaming?
@@young_oilyman7 I think OP meant anti-cheat, "once all games with anti-cheat run on Linux".
luckly what i play works on linux/Steamdeck

There are images of Nobara 39 with Nvidia drivers and Wayland components on their website.

Tbh it's the case with every distro. Some people will praise it as the best distro ever some will hate it and say it breaks 3x a day

Are you using nvidia graphics card? Or AMD/Intel?

@@unleashed_ts interesting 🤔. I think I'm not skilled enough on Linux to help you. Maybe someone else can help you more than I can 😅
What's your main distro?
which music editor is it?
guitar pro 8
Cause Manjaro is garbage.. The 970 is pretty old, that is what I have on my server.
how? I cant play any games. Not a single one launches not even the once that are told to be native running.
Is Proton enabled?
