so, it has nothing to do with the driver version or a specific linux kernel version?

but the readme file says

The higher this parameter is choosen the more memory for a partial dag lolMiner is allowed to use. Thus the speed on your 4G cards will increase significantly. Given a recent driver (e.g. amdgpu-pro 20.30 or 20.40) and the right Linux kernel (best is 5.4 at the moment), you can almost always set a value of 4078, on many rigs even 4080. Older drivers or other Linux kernels may require significantly lower values and will perform slower.

So that's a question I have.  I'm looking to move my RX570 off Win10 and into Linux.  Is there a preferred flavour of linux? Can I go with Mint over Ubuntu?

Is there a walkthrough of preferred Linux settings (i haven't really found one. mostly Windows ones)
