I’ve been seriously looking to migrate away from Windows’s grip recently and I’ve laid my eyes on LMDE, as it seems like a simple and stable distro (I’m a total beginner in Linux/Unix). However, I have a laptop with an NVIDIA integrated graphics card, and given NVIDIA’s record, I’m worried about compatibility issues given that LMDE is Debian-based. Can anyone shine me some light on this? Thanks!

    if you are ok with an Ubuntu base (which these days is drifting further from its Debian base) then regular mint is great.

    if forced…

    1. Debian stable (or sid if you loathe/love yourself)
    2. lmde
    3. mint
    4. something other than ubuntu
    5. ubuntu

    not hating on ubuntu, its just been moving away from where I am at.
