    Is there no option to use the igpu? Or you need the dgpu for some reason?

    You can run a new distro with an old kernel, I used to do that with slackware. you can get similar 10 year support (after kernel.org lts ends) for the kernel if you take it from rhel/rocky linux

      It is, same as nouveau drivers. But with a loss in performance, because not gpu hardware acceleration.

      The computer runs and linux with nouveau will be its final destiny. But as for now there are some games I play that are just on the edge that run very well with hardware acceleration but sluggish with igpu or nouveau.

      I will have to look into the new distro/old kernel thing. It may be a solution.
