Of course there is! help.steampowered.com/en/…/18A4-1E10-8A94-3DDA I’m pretty sure it has always been their focus since the inception of SteamOS.

A bit unrelated, but does it support Linux?

Tried it, and it runs, but everything looks wrong somehow

The VR chat community has a good guide for getting things generally working for vr on Linux what you need is very dependant on your GPU and headset, ask.vrchat.com/t/…/46949

Thanks, will read that later. The headset is a valve index, and bazzite comes with pre-installed nvidia drivers and steam, so I assumed I wouldn’t have to do anything special. And it does work out of the box, as I said, it just works strangely (see my other reply).
I might just have to wait for the steam frame, I guess

Is this before you enter a game? Or only in the game you tested?
If it’s like that in the dashboard, then it might be a distro thing.

The dashboard itself looks like it’s tilted away from me (or towards me? don’t remember), but only with both eyes open. When I close any one eye, everything looks like it should be fine. It’s really strange, I don’t understand how that is even possible.
The distro is bazzite, and the headset is the valve index, so I literally just clicked launch in the pre-installed steam

In my experience steamvr works but is unstable and has really bad performance compared to windows. (Constant stuttering even in lighter games like pistol whip) Motion smoothing doesn’t work and it feels like there’s some input delay which is not acceptable for vr.
I’ve switched over to monado via envision, which loses the steamvr overlay and is very unpolished. (no camera passthrough and no boundary display, though both seem in development) Games play correctly with reasonable performance, which is what matters.
I wouldn’t recommend linux vr in general right now, if a friend wanted to try my headset I’d probably boot my windows partition. (Original htc vive with a 9070xt, so no excuse for steamvr’s linux performance)

I hope the Steam Frame means Valve is putting serious effort in fixing up SteamVR’s issues on Linux

I would, it runs great on my PC. Wivrn, AMD, quest 3

This is my setup now as well, easy 120fps to the headset wirelessly for all but one title in my library. Which I don’t even recall as I never play it anyway…

Wireless headsets do have fewer issues on Linux, from what I’ve read. A lot of the stuff I’m missing like passthrough and boundaries are probably handled by the headset instead of the pc.

SteamVR supports Linux natively, VR headsets on the other hand is a case by case situation (if the headset doesn’t support Linux SteamVR can’t magically make it work)
