(Asking here bc this is the containers expert community and understanding containers has been challenging for me)
Is it practical to use containers on an OS like Silverblue only for Nvidia GPU stuff like Stable Diffusion/Steam+external screen, while using the APU for a Wayland only desktop?
…or should I just stick to X11 for everything because nvidia sucks? I got a new laptop in transit (i7 12th gen with 3080ti) mostly for messing with Stable Diffusion and privateGPT. I will probably try reconnecting with an old friend with a Steam game too at some point.
I’ve been on Silverblue for a couple of years (Wayland only). I don’t know if I should just go back to Fedora Workstation to use X11 for everything, or if it is really practical to take a deeper dive into doing all of the nvidia stuff with toolbx/podman. Is there another distro that has full binary blob nvidia support and does containers/immutable well?
