Almost every distro I’ve used so far ends up having problems installing Steam due to mismatching i386 packages. I’ve heard that they’re being removed upstream. Anyone happen to know a timeline?

    Only reason I haven’t done that is because of VR. Not sure if VR works through flatpak.

      SteamVR works on Linux? What headset, if I may ask?

        Works perfectly fine, actually. I have a Valve Index. The only headsets with Linux support are the one I have, the HTC Vive and standalone headsets that work with ALVR (e.g. the Quest ones).

          Anything special you needed to do? I have the HTC Vive, and I’ve tried a few times over the years, without any success. Last time was about 2-3 years ago.

          Weird, it had crazy lag for me. I will have to try again.

      Not out of the box, but you can make it work.
