So…yeah. I have the original HTC Vive VR, with the original Vive Wireless kit. But I guess the whole thing is pretty much useless in Linux. AFAIK it never got support. My question would be, is there any headset there with proper decent support for VR? I mean, after the whole Steam Deck and proton support, maybe things have changed?
I was able to play through HL Alyx with a Valve Index Kit, on linux (PopOS!, installed Steam/SteamVR from Debian source), back in 2021/2.
Only thing back then that was a little wonky was trying to get the uh, front facing camera to just work in passthrough mode, but it got fixed up at some point in '22, IIRC.
I can’t speak for any other hardware, but … seems to me the Index is very well supported on linux.
It does work well but that’s not what OP asked for, they asked for wireless VR.
I believe if you’re willing to compromise and install chrome/chromium 🤢 you can run ALVR? It requires a Quest headset last I checked though.
Oh, shit, I genuinely missed that.
Well derp.
I really, seriously need to get glasses, damnit.
