Was this from a Linux vendor, or was it Windows hardware that you hoped would randomly work with Linux? System integration takes teams of folks months or years, even for Windows. I'm not sure why you'd decide to try your own hand at that if you don't want to deal with hardware.

Would be worth mentioning the specific model so that a) we can avoid buying it and b) maybe shame the manufacturer into fixing it.
Without specifying some boot parameters I can't even boot an installation USB stick on Linux, there are some mode settings issues or something like that. And while that is fixable I couldn't get fractional scaling to work well on Linux, and I absolutely need that with my new display.
I would like to use Linux more, but I'm not very motivated to play around with hardware issues. This obviously can vary a lot depending on the exact hardware you use.
