I also had screen tearing issues immediately on startup into the mint installer. Had to run the installer in safe mode to get mint going. Once mint was fully installed and rebooted to my desktop for the first time, had the same screen issues as I did with the installer not in safe mode. So mint only worked during install and only in safe mode.
Maybe our issues are similar (I’m Nvidia 1080 card), but I was never able to fix mine.
It feels like none of the replies to you actually read your comment. I appreciate you taking the time to offer up possible explanations with examples. Thank you!
Im with you here. Content on lemmy isnt great… it mostly all falls under the same 5 or so themese.
But the comment section is wonderful everywhere ive been.
Lets not take this time for granted.
I wish for this so much too. Like everything in the world, once your thing is marketed and has main stream appeal, it’s gone.
And we cant go back. I want to so much, but we cant. Because even good people have that nagging part of their mind that says “why am I doing this for free”.
That movie couldve been so much more…
