PikaOS maybe too “hobby oriented” to expect “sleep stability”, but I understand most/all bugs to be debian or kde upstream ones. Is gnome still much better at stability? Is there a distribution that fixed sleep problems for you? open vs closed nvidia drivers?

Are there motherboard manufacturers that suck less at linux?

    I really haven’t had any issues for like 10+ years. Using Debian with Gigabyte motherboards, ThinkPad, and Dell XPS’.

      I have a Gigabyte motherboard, and the only issue I’ve run into—even with Arch—is this specific B550 board uses some third-party sensors, and the necessary it87 module doesn’t load and isn’t included by default. This makes it impossible to utilize tools like CoolerControl to manage fan curves.

      Thankfully, some kind soul manages a DKMS module via the AUR, in spite of both Gigabyte and the IC manufacturers being less than helpful.
