Absolutely.

That may be related to your desktops environment with Wayland instead of good old X11

I use lmstudio too, from the official appimage.

Never managed to get the nvidia working, probably because the nvidia drivers are a pain to install properly (secure boot, drivers, kernel, display … everything must be perfect or it doesn’t work).

But the CPU is just enough for local models if you are a bit patient and have plenty RAM.

It is very unusual for lmstudio failing to detect your CPU and your system memory. I would start looking for excessive restriction affecting lmstudio itself (appimage ? Native ? Something with selinux or system hardening ?)
