VR Experiences With Oculus Headsets On Linux? - eviltoast

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)?

    Afaik it’s nearly impossible. Even the Index has a lot of issues and is I think somewhat semi abandoned in favor of the Deckard and because of their internal SteamOS change towards Arch. I would expect some news & improvements with the Deckard release but right now I wouldn’t recommend it.
