Can't wait to graduate so I don't have to run Respondus and keep dealing with this crap

Surprisingly enough, nvidia drivers turned out to be the easy part.

Doesn't sound like it. Just because it installed correctly doesn't mean its well functioning, compliant standard, and able to function both performant and with stability. Also what does drive partitioning have to do with sleep/hibernation?

Performance and stability seems to be at the same level it was under windows 10/11. Can't say nothing about standard compliance, nor do I really care in the end.

I'm kinda sure I wasn't missing functionality, either. Then again, my card is old GTX, so DLSS not working is not because of drivers.

ETA: Hibernation requires swap space. Yes, swap file is viable alternative to partition, but I already had a swap partition, albeit too small. Even with partitioning aside, enabling hibernation is tedious compared to windows, where it's literally ten clicks, five with keyboard and five with mouse. And on linux it requires a lot of "rooting around".
