Perfectly?

What games or experiences do you play? I'm basically in VRChat all day with OVR and XSOverlay.

I'm eager to know what workarounds you needed to do in order to get "perfect working order"

The only issue I seem to have is when one of the frequent Nvidia drivers is updated I need to re-run flatpak update to pull updates manually, and occasionally I have to disconnect and reconnect the display cable or I get a hardware address issue. That's it. Oh and the beacons don't properly sleep/wake in Linux they just stay on.

I usually play

  • super hot
  • beat saber
  • moss
  • Alyx
  • google earth
  • redout
  • star wars squadrons

Never tried VR chat. I use VR and games to get away from people not closer ๐Ÿ˜‚

I'm sure there are pain points I'm glossing over, controller config I remember can be a pain, as most aren't developed with index in mind. In my mind these are artefacts of adopting any new technology before it's form factor is standardized and ubiquitous.

So "perfectly" for me, now that I've come to know what it's prerequisites are.

Oh I have to do this, oh I have to do that. Doesn't sound perfectly to me ๐Ÿคฃ

You're absolutely right. You should 100% stay on windows, where it all works the very first time and forevermore! I never see anyone posting about issues with that OS! Enjoy!

Delusional. You Linux fanboys are something else.
