Hey everyone! I have a question that I can't for the life of me find the answer to via searching online, so I need your help!
I am currently running Windows 11 on my daily driver (I know, I know), and I am running through a detailed checklist before I migrate to Debian 12. I have made a list of the software I regularly use, as well as Linux alternatives of software that may need to be changed to an alternate, I have thought through my workflow, and taken notes on things that are important to me and that I may need to customize on the installation. I have Debian 12 on 2 different VMs that I use for different things on my daily driver, as well as on my home server which runs all of my more critical services.
The main question I am having trouble with is that my AMD CPU doesn't have integrated graphics, and I am concerned that the drivers for my RTX 3050 won't be installed by default during the graphical installation. Should I make any preparations for this? Will the open-source Nvidia drivers be installed by default? Should I make any changes to the installation media before starting the installation?
I have already backed up everything on my C drive redundantly and have system images on my NAS ready to go should there be any issues, so I'm not worried about that, I am just maybe overly concerned about the fact that I don't have integrated graphics in my CPU and there may not be native GPU drivers for my GPU.
Edit: Also, I'd appreciate any ideas you guys have about fun practice BASH scripts to write as I am currently refining my skills with BASH scripting. I have already written a backup script for my media server, an update script to set to run weekly with cron, a number multiplication script that asks you for two numbers, and a script that tells me the exact size of directories that I enter when it asks me for a path.
