some mentions of „battery saver mode“ and nvidia gpu misbehaving with old driver.

thanks, will explore a bit
i had to manually install the latest drivers because nothing else worked so old drivers isnt a problem. i also tried ubuntu, arch (standalone), garuda (arch based), mint and all had this problem. didnt find any info on lenovolegionlinux so will check it out
what i did find was a lot of people having problems with linux on this exact laptop
windows would probably work out the box and will likely never fail like linux does
i have windows 10 home on it rn but i really wanted this to be a linux laptop
