Hey guys!

For years now, I’m thinking about buying a VR-Headset for gaming. Since I entirely switched my devices to Linux (Debian), I have to consider, if that’s even an acceptable experience so far.

My questions:

  • Is VR in an acceptable state for Linux?
  • Which VR-Headset could give the best experience so far?
  • Are we already at the point, where VR-Headset-companies deliver decent Linux software? Maybe open-source?

Please update me! I’ve been living under a rock for too long.

    My personal ergonomic favorite is still the CV1. It does not work on linux.

    I’m using the Index, and it works quite well, but I’m not at all satisfied with it.

    Compared to the CV1 the audio, colors, weight, and controllers are straight up worse.

    Obviusly it also improves on the CV1 in a bunch of ways but I really wish the CV1 worked on linux. (It technically can be done, but not well). I prefer the tradeoffs it made for VR hardware.

    I am hoping the Frame will still enough ideas from the CV1 to be the one.
