Fortunately, this fucking windows partition I only keep for VR with my shitty Oculus Rift CV1 reminds me how fucked up the alternative is. I can't fucking wait to get a Steam Frame and ditch it.

sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia

Seriously though, this is still the same problem on windows. If you switch from AMD to Nvidia, it'll load a generic display driver until you install the Nvidia one either through windows updates (heavily outdated) or GeForce Now (heavy bloat).

At least Linux gives you Nouveau instead of throwing you into a 480p fallback output.
