The Nvidia section needed a few updates for issues that have come up, mostly with the driver update to 545. Let me know if anything could be worded clearer.

I just realized c4cf625 repeats info already on the Multi Gpu page. I'll change that to just link there. (and apply 4020025)

Edit: on second thought changing the Multi GPU page should probably be a separate pull request. Just changing c4cf625 to an infobox with a link to Multi GPU.

Was caught up in the end of the semester and forgot about this completely, honestly I haven't kept up and I'm not sure how relevant some of these things are now that there isn't a separate nvidia patch. If some parts are unnecessary now let me know and I'll remove them or if it's just out of date feel free to close.

Generally looks good, but with the amount of hints present, I propose having a separate # FAQ heading with all of those.

This PR makes the nvidia section clearer. It is a pity that it didn't get through since november. I am sure it would help the users.

Can you clarify this @fufexan please ?

There are many {{< hint >}}s present, and frequently one right after the other. A cleaner solution would be to list them as entries ### Title of issue under a bigger section ## FAQ at the end of the page. That way those sections can also be linked easily.

The hints are placed in their contextual place where they make sense though.

Anyways, now that Hyprland is shipped in various distros; do you think that we should explain the drivers installation on Arch Linux like we are currently doing, or should we just remove the drivers section and direct the user to their corresponding distribution wiki page instead ?

@Aqa-Ib I feel like the steps are pretty similar on standard distros, so this page can help users of distros other than Arch as well. But if the same detailed steps are present in those distros' wikis, then we can simply direct the users to those pages.

Next month we will have the new Nouveau Vulkan Driver working in Mesa, making the Nouveau driver worth trying instead of the proprietary drivers even for playing games. Hopefully, soon we can just remove this section of the wiki entirely. For now, I wonder how could we proceed here.
