VR-on-Linux VS Oculess

What headset do you have? VR works great when it works, but the protocols on Linux don't play well with all headsets. If you have a Vive, Vive Pro, or Index, it should work well with SteamVR. Otherwise, you'll have to dig around and test yourself using something like OpenHMD or more likely Monado, which both have limited device support. In my search, I came across this page, which might help you out.

As a rare VR on Linux user, SteamVR for Linux is in a sad state and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who's not extremely dedicated. The fact that it exists at all is a step up from other vendors but man is it a bad experience right now. Worse than it's been since the earliest days IMO

Yep. Here's a relatively out-of-date list: https://gitlab.com/vr-on-linux/VR-on-Linux/-/tree/master/Proton

They are untested but should work, they use Valve's firmware. I reached out to the developers about it a while ago for this document.

Also, check out /r/virtualreality_linux and: https://gitlab.com/vr-on-linux/VR-on-Linux

I've removed it from the list.

Aside from the smaller list of native/supported games, here's what I've found has been tested to work.

Oculess Github

Never tried it but there is Oculess: https://github.com/basti564/Oculess

you can try using oculess to disable telemetry and maybe even remove fb from the headset if you manage to score a v41 or lower headset and use only oculus link/virtual desktop or alvr or any wireless vr streaming to use it with steamvr

Perhaps the root of this problem. https://github.com/basti564/Oculess/issues/81
