    Only thing I’ve found to really not work is head tracking. That’s pretty niche though and I’m expecting someone to figure that out eventually. Almost every game ran no problem.

        No, not VR. Headtracking. The head is tracked with something like a webcam to move the camera.

          Wouldn’t you look away from the screen?

            You calibrate it so that a small head movement translates to a large camera movement.

        Anecdotally; I am running Manjaro, with a valve index, and other than a few need-to-disconnect-and-reconnect my HMD, it’s been solid and painless.

        Yep open track works but not the freetrack protocol which communicates with various games through it.

        Might not be called freetrack. Was a month since I used it, and honestly I don’t pay much attention to the names of stuff. But either way it isn’t supported on Linux.

        I fucked around with OpenTrack for days but came to no solution other than reverting to windows.

        edit: yes, it’s freetrack. When freetrack works I’m instantly leaving.
