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.

My 2080 has issues and cuts off part of the screen on Linux mint. My 6700xt and amd setup would never. I switched and tried every driver. I've never used nvidia. Anyone have advice?
this happens to me if i use nouveau. i solve this by installing the driver and setting the correct refresh rate.
I tried all drivers and done all display settings. I've changed resolution and refresh. I can't for the life of ms figure this out. Anyone at all please help... Its so frustrating I don't even use my PC anymore.
