Answer 3

In Linux, there may be problems with drivers for marginal hardware - Chinese junk, in which they saved money by pushing logic into Windows drivers. This can be encountered in budget laptops or SOHO peripherals.
But on the usual common hardware, Linux gets up calmly and without question, you don’t even remember that it needs some kind of driver - everything is there out of the box.
This, of course, is not true for any Linux, but for Mint, which in the tags to the question is completely.
