This is my Personal Linux distro configuration. I was using Opensuse Tumbleweed but because of its painfully slow update/upgrade speeds I thought of checking out the New Ubuntu 22.04 LTS version. Its holding pretty good till now. I am dual booting it with windows 11 ( secure boot enabled). Once Fedora gets fully integrated with new open source NVIDIA drivers I will shift to that.
