You can use the Terminal or something like AnythingLLM. It has a GUI and you can import pictures and Websites.

Well, I dont know what you are running, but on Debian or Fedora it automatically installed Drivers and picked the GPU. I had a Problem like this ones, where it had wrong Drivers (but it was in an NVIDIA GPU).

I run the 32b Version on my 6700xt with an R9 3700x using ollama. It runs well but it gets a bit slower on complex problems. I once ran an 70b Llama model, but it took a long time to finish.

Nah its normal, been hoping since 6 years. I keep an external hard drive with important info, so i can nuke my system without worry.

Like others have said, Bazzite is a good option.The auto driver install is amazing. Had no problems with Bazzite, not like PopOs(some Driver issues with older NVDIA GPU). Only thing is the ISO’s are really large (>6Gb).

I study electeical engineering and my Uni runs Debian on the Workstations and in general, all the Profs give either programms which natively run on Linux or alternatives.
