content: I have issues every time I install Linux, the latest time I installed Mint I spent 2-3 hours troubleshooting the install. It ended up being that my video card's driver's weren't supported, because apparently a NVIDIA 960GTX wasn't mainstream enough for it to work right from the install. I had to go into a safe mode, and manually install the latest drivers or I'd just get a black screen with no explanation. The time before that there was issues getting the onboard LAN driver to work, I had to manually move the driver over on a USB stick from another machine. The same hardware had all just worked on Windows after the install. Part of it is that i'm not as familiar with Linux, it has gotten way easier to use than it used to be, but if I go to install Windows it just works. I cant remember the last time I've had an install or driver issue with Windows. I also game, so at least for my main box, there would be no way I'd be able to use Linux.
