OpenHMD reviews and mentions

• Oculus CV1 HDMI Connection Issue
  1 project | /r/linux_gaming | 13 Nov 2022

  I modified the AUR package for openhmd to build your repo/branch instead. git+https://github.com/thaytan/OpenHMD.git#branch=rift-kalman-filter But the tracking is just as jittery as before and it's still just 3DOF. Is there any special compiler flags or something that need to be activated for 6DOF to work, or is it more likely that I just installed it wrong somehow?

• There is now an open source Rift S driver, with hand tracking support!
  1 project | /r/oculus | 8 Oct 2022

  Yes. Was developed by the same guy, in fact: https://github.com/thaytan/OpenHMD/tree/rift-kalman-filter

• Is the Oculus DK2 worth it on Linux?
  1 project | /r/linux_gaming | 26 Aug 2022

  if they wanna stay with Oculus, they could give the CV1 a try, assuming they know how to setup the drivers for it to work on Linux. Thaytan on github has been working on and improving 6DOF tracking for the CV1 for a while now but is needing help with the tracking part of it to fix a few kinks. You can easily okay Beat Saber with it no problem. Should give it a look if you are interested. Thaytan has some youtube videos as well of some gameplay with it. The branch on github you would want to use is the rift-correspondence-search one. https://github.com/thaytan/OpenHMD/tree/rift-correspondence-search

• Hey, I'm making a collection of typical Linux VR problems. If you play VR on Linux too, please send me problems with solutions you had back when you started. I will write them down to make life easier for everyone. If you have no problems for me, you could read it and give me feedback, thanks. :)

• Can't get the cv1 to display anything
  1 project | /r/openhmd | 15 Oct 2021

  I re-measured distortion parameters on my CV1 last month (https://github.com/thaytan/OpenHMD/commit/46d164a9) and they made things much clearer for me... maybe those parameters aren't right for your headset? Unfortunately it's a really hard thing to get a photo of for me to tell what you're seeing on your end.

  https://github.com/ChristophHaag/SteamVR-OpenHMD with https://github.com/thaytan/OpenHMD/tree/rift-kalman-filter would work for now getting the CV1 working positionally tracked on Linux (currently in branch, still experimental but usable!)
