minus-squaremarcie (she/her)@lemmy.mlOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-23 days agoBazzite has a build for the older proprietary nvidia drivers, I’m pretty sure 1080s dont get the open source variant of the driver unfortunately 😔 https://github.com/NVIDIA/open-gpu-kernel-modules https://download.bazzite.gg/bazzite-nvidia-stable-amd64.iso this is the download for the proprietary nvidia kde iso https://download.bazzite.gg/bazzite-gnome-nvidia-stable-amd64.iso this one is for gnome I don’t know how well the proprietary driver runs, I assume if you got it running on another linux distro this will work fine
