From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I have an Asus TUF with an iGPU and a discrete nVidia GPU. I did no configuration whatsoever to get the iGPU to work, and simply use prime-run when I need more GPU power (basically, only for Steam and Kdenlive).
I use Arch btw, on Xorg, with the closed-source nVidia driver (I never tried Wayland on this setup).
Pretty much the same setup with KDE wayland, steam games and some games I play through lutris (which are mostly proton enabled) all run well on Nvidia GPU.
