Can you get it to work? Absolutely. However, you will have more framerate drops and glitchy graphics than in windows, and framerate drops in VR are 1000x worse than in non-VR because they make you motionsick as hell

SteamVR
The de facto standard for anything PCVR, SteamVR runs on Linux.
Unfortunately the Linux version is riddled with bugs, missing features and bad performace, so in general it can be a subpar experience.
VR sucks in Linux tho
I mean ms killed off mixed reality (windows vr headsets) in latest win11. So I’ve got a useless headset now 🙃
No? Have a look at LVRA, many headsets are supported, and IMO using Monado is better than SteamVR…

That’s why most people who use VR on Linux don’t use SteamVR and instead use Monado, like I do. Monado is FOSS as well.
Thanks, I’ll check it
There is a GUI program called “envision” which makes setup pretty easy, since it will also setup additional components for you.
