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.

Basically the title. I’ve only ever seen huge 20 page guides on how to make it work. Is there an easy way?

Specifically on Debian or Arch with a laptop with two gpus (zephyrus g14)

It's not... easy but it's also not 20 pages difficult, unless you wanna do sinlge GPU passtrough, then that's black magic.

Here is the guide I used when setting it up

This along with the arch wiki's page on GPU passtrough should be enough to get you setup

E: Pro tip - pay close attention to section 2.3 Gotchas in the arch wiki, this sh!t had me stuck for a while on my system
