FellIt is with great disappointment that I report: <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/VR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#VR</a> on <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> just isn't ready yet.

It works better than SteamVR for crying out loud.But it's that 2% of issues that will make you go back to Windows. I hate to admit it, but it's the truth.

NulhommeAlright tried once more to make monado + opencomposite work because other people "assured me it would work" and it doesn't..... followed <a href="https://lvra.gitlab.io/docs/distros/nixos/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://lvra.gitlab.io/docs/distros/nixos/</a> + <a href="https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/VR" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/VR</a> + <a href="https://monado.freedesktop.org/valve-index-setup.html#5-setting-up-opencomposite" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://monado.freedesktop.org/valve-index-setup.html#5-setting-up-opencomposite</a>, so is there a fucking secret magic documentation that make this work or everyone lying ???<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#vr</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nixos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#nixos</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/monado" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#monado</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/opencomposite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#opencomposite</a>

Francis Mangion (M) (VR/AR/*)OpenOVR/OpenComposite: "The tool you've been waiting for for a stutter-free experience in OpenVR."

Maxwell (it/its)After a year of anguish, I've given up on <a href="https://meow.social/tags/SteamVR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SteamVR</a> and threw in my lot with <a href="https://meow.social/tags/Monado" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Monado</a>, <a href="https://meow.social/tags/LibSurvive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LibSurvive</a>, and <a href="https://meow.social/tags/OpenComposite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenComposite</a>. I didn't have high hopes for this stack.But I was wrong. Yes, it was kind of a pain to set up, but I had a good guide to lead me through the process on Arch-derivatives (<a href="https://monado.freedesktop.org/valve-index-setup.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://monado.freedesktop.org/valve-index-setup.html</a>).Monado works! The reprojection works! And this puts to rest my hypotheses that maybe something other than SteamVR broke. My hardware works fine with Monado, but not SteamVR, which I must interpret as evidence that SteamVR is just a broken mess on <a href="https://meow.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a>.I finally have a reason to get back into <a href="https://meow.social/tags/Resonite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Resonite</a>! I needed to be kitsunedoll in <a href="https://meow.social/tags/VR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#VR</a> again so bad.By the way, the mistake I made was to point to the wrong directory in <code>openvrpaths.vrpath.opencomp</code>. I didn't have a <code>git</code> directory to clone OpenComposite into. Oops.

AtemuThere are still some bugs to iron out such as screen-space reflections in BeatSaber being off (probably an <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/opencomposite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#opencomposite</a> bug) and <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/libsurvive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#libsurvive</a>'s own calibration without input from <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/SteamVR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SteamVR</a> did not produce satisfactory results in the slightest but we're extremely close to being able to ditch <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/SteamVR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SteamVR</a> for good.

AtemuJust played <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/BeatSaber" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BeatSaber</a> via <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/opencomposite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#opencomposite</a> using a <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/monado" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#monado</a> + <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/libsurivive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#libsurivive</a> stack on my <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/ValveIndex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ValveIndex</a>.Not only did it work but it worked extremely well after using `survive-cli --steamvr-calibration ~/.steam/steam/config/lighthouse/lighthousedb.json` to import the SteamVR calibration data.Honestly, compositing was a lot smoother than <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/SteamVR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SteamVR</a> on Linux even. Impressive.All working beautifully on <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/NixOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NixOS</a> thanks to <a href="https://floss.social/@Scrumplex" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@Scrumplex</a>'s work in PRs like <a href="https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/245005" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/245005</a>
