My pc is down for the moment (gpu fan shit itself, waiting for replacements), but I’ve seen 2 potential fixes that you may or may not have tried: 1.) running nvidia settings app as admin: open terminal and type “sudo nvidia-settings” without the quotes, enable max performance, save settings and (allegedly) it will save the settings. I tried this but didn’t get enough time to test bc I was having major os/UA-cam and video lag, but oddly games were fine. 2.) uninstall nvidia settings entirely and just install drivers alone: “sudo apt remove nvidia-settings”, then either “sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall” OR “sudo apt install nvidia-driver-(latest driver number, which I think is 535, so it would be “sudo apt install nvidia-driver-535” but double check) Again I haven’t tested either of these but the forum posts I found claim that they’ve solved their system stutter problem!! If you want to try them out feel free and I will try them as soon as I can get my pc back up and post the results.
Those are great suggestions! I have experienced so many issues with Nvidia drivers recently on all of my computers at home. Even the update from Mint would crash each one of my computers. so frustrating! Just this last week in Oct 2023 Nvidia has pushed out a new update for Driver 535 and apparently they have fixed the problem. Now my computers do not crash when updating Nvidia drivers. For the issue in my video, the temporary fix is to run a start up command in Mint: nvidia-settings -a '[gpu:0]/GpuPowerMizerMode=1' This forces PowerMizer to Maximum Performance every time I login. So far it is working on all of my computers... even my Media Center connected to my 4K TV
Oooohhhh I see, smart. I’ll have to try that too if admin/uninstalling all together doesn’t work. And it’s very frustrating! Especially since we’re running on modern and good hardware. But I recently switched to Linux and otherwise love it, I suppose just getting used to the quirks of another OS and figuring out how to make it run right are just part of it! Thank you for the tip tho I’ll have to try that first I think, it’s pretty annoying to see tearing and stuttering on UA-cam with an i9 9900k and 3080ti lmao, the one thing I miss abt windows was that it would just work. Still not worth it tho!!!
I've been using Mint for about 10 years now and mostly for gaming! I will never go back to Windows, even with Linux bugs. In the last 3 years Proton has really accelerated gaming in Linux and I love it! Recently finished Titanfall 2... now playing Borderlands 3 again and started The Witcher 3. All are running well despite some of the issue in BL3. I love Proton! Anyways, I posted this video because I couldn't figure out why my 4K TV was having audio and stuttering issues. I tried EVERYTHING to fix it! Then one day I realized setting "Maximum Performance" in Nvidia PowerMizer wasn't working. You could literally see the speed numbers moving back-n-forth. Thanks Nvidia for countless hours of troubleshooting! Here are some issues I've been recently dealing with in Mint 21 1. Background Slideshow has a limit of images available 2. Updates /video updates - Crashing Mint 3. Updates corrupting /home drive 4. Steam shortcut no longer starts Steam 5. Drag-n-Drop files to folders doesn't work 6. Uploading/Opening a file doesn't remember path 7. Login Screen background doesn't load 8. OpenShot Video Editor doesn't open, have to re-install Resolved: 1. Steam - Vulkan Processing Shaders Bug 2. Waking from Sleep (no video) 3. Mint 20 & 21 - No drivers in Driver Manager
@@brianintheredyes I see the way now haha, the customization, learning command line, the control and lack of bloatware? It’s all awesome. Totally worth ironing out some bugs. I’ve started learning offensive cyber/red teaming and being in a Linux environment helps a lot! And yes I had always heard how much Linux sucked for games in the past but I’ve had no problems with gaming specifically, actually cyberpunk runs better for me on Linux! Proton is an awesome thing. Sorry to hear you’ve had so many issues, I did also encounter the login background bug and haven’t fixed that either. It’s on my short list once my pc lives again!
I was able to temporarily resolve the background issue by finding the default path to the background folder and putting my own image in there. Keep having fun with Linux and learn all you can! I have Linux on 4 gaming PCs, 2 TVs, 2 Laptops and 1 Server.
Do you think the updates reset my settings for Nvidia control panel? I can't change Preferred mode to "Maximum Performance" and quit because it doesn't save.
@@brianinthered yeah its not great is it, i have approached the same issue, cant save, when i save; did i save it to the right conf, errr... no, it didn't take after reboot, what if i save it to this conf... errrr.. nope, wtf do i haz to do to save me settings rofl, it is a farce. giving me bouts of lack-of-confidence. it should be easier than this, ffs its my hardware, my system, why isn't this much much easier! ergo, therefore, nvidia-settings not being reinstalled after update is kinda welcome lol

using kde on manjaro, updates don't install nvidia-settings any more, im ok with that.

Same problem here! I've got a Linux guru friend who can help me figure out how to make the settings save. I will post my solution here!
I made it a little easier, ditched Nvidia and installed Amd )
I've been thinking about it with this Media Center computer, but all my other PCs run great with Nvidia GeForce video cards and gaming.
