Also: it should be able to deal with NVidia cards.

NixOS handles nvidia cards better than any linux distro i've ever uses including Debian, Ubuntu, and Archlinux.

I've only had to add a few lines to my configuration over 10 PCs and laptops.

Ok, that is good to know. But how well does it run on NVidia's Jetson line of systems?

The Jetson environment provided by Nvidia runs Ubuntu and are setup for you to use docker.

I have trouble understanding your question. Why do you want to use Nix if you use a system which comes pre-configured to do something else?

Same reason why I removed Windows from my desktop computer and installed Linux :)
