Tumbleweed. Rolling release with automated testing (openQA), snapper properly setup out of the box.

Honestly the entire openSUSE ecosystem. Tumbleweed on my main PC that often has some of the latest hardware, Slowroll on my (Framework) laptop because it’s rolling but slower (monthly feature updates, only fixes in-between), and Leap for servers where stability (as in version/compatibility stability, not “it doesn’t crash” stability) is appreciated.

openSUSE also comes in atomic flavors for those interested. And it’s European should you care.

With all that being said, I don’t really care much about what distro I’m using. What I do with it could be replicated with pretty much any distro. For me it’s mostly just a means to an end.

Would be awesome if you’d share your solution for the next person encountering the same issue :)

What exact GPU model? Kernel version? Have you tried it with SELinux disabled temporarily?

TIL Plasma can generate QR codes for clipboard items. Very handy.
