I have a Nvidia GPU, which I understand is problematic with Linux. I’ve heard this is something can happen, so I assume it’s why the “Cinnamon” process is using around 20-40% CPU resources at all times. So, how do I switch to using GPU for that? I’ve installed Nvidia drivers through the driver manager already

    is nvidia-smi and lspci outputting the correct information about the gpu?

    what happens when you try a game? i’ve had many issues with cinnamon+nvidia before even when everything else is working well, so its gonna be useful to narrow it down a bit.
