# System "requirements"
As always with Linux, setup will vary from distro to distro. But there's some basics that should be in place regardless of distro:
- Linux kernel 5.11+ (Saw good improvements to Intel Xe graphics support)
- Mesa version as recent as possible
- If gaming on Steam, set "Proton Experimental" as compatibility tool (Many games fail to launch with any numbered release)
And last but not least:
- Patience
Intel Xe graphics are very recent, and so are the drivers. Regardless of platform. You **WILL** encounter graphical bugs and compatibility issues with games, until Intel irons out their drivers more.
Surprisingly that's mostly it. Keyboard, gamepad, ports, WiFi, Bluetooth and most other things just work as long as your kernel is recent enough.
