Hello Everyone,
I’m running the nvidia branch with an nvidia card and I’m thinking of switching to AMD.
My questions is, do I rebase first, then change out the gpu? Or the gpu first then rebase to the non-nvidia image? Is there a correct step or it doesn’t matter? Will the drivers work fine?
Both should work really, because the AMD driver is present in all images (they already have open source the kernel modules a long time ago, so they are present in all images).
If you switch out the GPU first, you should still be able to boot the non-Nvidia branch with the AMD card. You can then rebase to not include run with the Nvidia software (as it is unused).
If you switch to non-NVidia branch, you should still be able to boot with your Nvidia but probably falling back to simple VGA drivers (no acceleration or higher resolutions) or just the nouveau driver which should be present anyway. Changing out the GPU after will work.
Having said that, I would probably switch out the GPU first as it allows you to swap it back to a known good state by putting back the Nvidia.
Great! Thank you for the reply!
