Guys have you tried if it works on GOG/Heroic? The Steam solution doesn't work on Heroic....

Unfortunately after the latest updates it no longer works Steamvr no longer connects to ALVR, any version of Steamvr I use does not connect, perhaps because I use the latest Nvidia drivers? I use Manjaro and it worked great before, I tried on Mint and it doesn't work. :sad:

I love Manjaro, I have two SSDs with KDE and Gnome, but if the "Gaming" edition is like the official ones I don't think I can trust it, after the latest updates I have both KDE/Gnome systems unstable and almost broken. Steamvr (version 2.4) also no longer works after Manjaro updates (Maybe for Nvidia drivers?). I don't know how reliable they are...(I have been using Manjaro for 10 years)...

Quoting: MohandevirJust got the upgrade, on my PC... After the update, I was left with an empty desktop. All the apps had been removed. I had to reinstall the desktop with "pacman -Qqn | pacman -S -" to get them back.

Hu... rray! :huh:

After updating it, all the applications disappeared, I cursed as only we Sicilians know how to do, making all the existing saints fall from the sky... I counted to a thousand and solved it by restarting x11... :tongue:

In fact, the first thing I did was restarting my computer... Still empty. KDE issue?

it's a strange error, rebooting didn't fix the problem for me, but switching from x11 to Wayland and then back to x11 fixed the problem... :wink:

Quoting: ghiumaI use Quest 2 with ALVR and Steamvr on Manjaro and it's crazy how well it works, Moss, Half Life Alyx, Fallout 4 vr etc etc, but this updated version no longer works. It no longer connects to ALVR, I went back to the old version and it works... I hope for a solution...

just out of curiosity , does this work wireless?

Yes wireless, just configure the ALVR, the difference with the cable is small, on YouTube there are excellent videos on configuring the Quest on Linux.

Hello, I'm one of ALVR's devs. Sadly because of the requirements put on us by the Steam Runtime(scout) we are unable to get alvr to work in this release nor can we compile ALVR in scout because of glibc a dependency of Rust being too old. The solution on Valve's side would to make a version of soldier or sniper that isn't containerized so that VRcompositor can be updated to use it as the driver(ALVR) has a dependency on it. We are considering other options like Monado. It's a little sad that Linux direct mode driver API support something we requested for a long time now has also arrived in a update that breaks everything.

I want to thank you for the work you do with ALVR, thanks to you I can use Quest 2 on my beloved Linux, I hope Valve solves the problem. They're investing a lot in Linux so I imagine it's a valid goal for them too to make SteamVR usable for everyone.

One of my favorite distributions, too bad it doesn't come with Gnome3 by default... For me Gnome is the best DE for gamers...
