Doesn't it come with Nvidia's blend of Ubuntu with a custom kernel? Do other distros work as well as "DGX OS" or are nvidia's kernel changes pretty important to have?

Hopefully better than support on their Jetson or orin boards, where compiling anything is hard because of the outdated stack.

I've not noticed much in it that is NVIDIA specific.

But I would say that as an Ubuntu and Debian user for decades I have no incentive to use anything else on it and I'm just pleased to have a Linux on Aarch64 machine that is well supported for a change.
