Understandable. But i like privacy and the whole thought behind FOSS. I am a Software developers myself and like to dig into code and See for myself how it works and play with it.

Since the release of Oculus Dev Kit 1 (https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oculus_Rift) 10 years passed. So i thought that could be a long enough time for an OpenSource-Community to drop a Kind-of-alternative to properitary Oculus Software.

And it seems i was thinking right. Thanks for mentioning ALVR! I searched for an alternative here https://alternativeto.net/software/oculus-experiences/ . But ALVR didnt pop up.

 

Hey,

I was wondering if there is a way to run Oculus VR Games natively in Linux? I have an Oculus Quest 2 and Oculus Rift CV1 Headset and an dedicated Windows 11 Laptop just for VR Gaming. But i want to ditch it for my Main Linux Gaming Machine. So is there a way to achieve this?

I know there is OpenVR and SteamVR which runs on Linux. But does it work for Oculus Headsets too? And if not, what are the alternatives (Except buying Valve Index Or HTC Vive)?
