From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is not accurate at all. It always works using Ubuntu's GUI and you don't have to reboot or anything. Only issues I had was that you have to reinstall those drivers each time you upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu
No, my sister's system has the exact same symptoms, despite using the Ubuntu GUI. So at least under some conditions it's accurate.
I have upgraded from driver 525 to 535 on 3 different systems (work PC/laptop and personal PC). Every single time the screen would go black and I had to force reboot.
This is absolutely accurate, at least for some people I guess.
