Aw, dang. Just played it recently for the first time. Hopefully it can be resolved soon.

Quoting: CorbenFor me 2.0.10 gives error 497: "Failed to connect to window manager"
"Stable" 2.0.8 still works though.

I solved that issue by installing the OVR advanced settings.

I'm on Mint 21.2

I got OVRAS installed already, but I heard 2.0.11 should fix the 497 error, need to re-test.

As it's still not working for me, despite that special fix related to Ubuntu/Debian systems... my VR is on Linux now completely unusable.

Does it run for anybody with the native Linux version?
Works on Deck with native Linux (no Proton needed or shown), but on Desktop Linux, I have to use Proton, otherwise I get a missing executable error.

Quoting: Ehvis

Quoting: CorbenSomehow VR on Linux is currently completely broken for me. Even Steam VR stable. Though Steam VR 1.27.5 boots up, I cannot start any game anymore. Beat Saber (1.29 legacy), After The Fall, Until You Fall, Synth Riders... they all used to work like 2 weeks ago. When I tried it two days ago again, none of the games are starting anymore.
Haven't tried 2.0.3 beta yet, but the versions before didn't start for me at all.
Hopefully this gets resolved soon, I miss playing VR!

Are you on the Steam Client beta?

Mostly yes, tried stable too.

Woohoo! HZD was soo good! Next to Death Stranding and Cyberpunk one of the best games I've played in the recent years. Can't wait to continue the story in this fascinating world.
And I dream about Horizon VR: Call of the Mountain coming to PC (Steam) at some point as well.

Quoting: Liam DaweI actually found with 2.0 that even though I had the old UI, all the flickering and weirdness on it was gone.

The flickering/jumping in the chapperone view? Chanky controller behaviour in the game?
From my experience this is caused by async reprojection: the games rendered nicely smooth, just that room (I have Steam VR Home turned off) and the controllers slighty jumping were an issue. As I don't look at the controllers all the time, it wasn't too bad.
If that's fixed now, it would be a great improvement!

Looking forward to see Valve giving VR (on Linux) a bit more attention. Sure, the Steam Deck will still have a majority of workforce, but VR on Linux is corrently not in a great state.
For me a rogue black window is sitting there all the time (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS + Gnome), the settings windows pops up on each start of SteamVR, quite some games stopped working (e.g. latest Beat Saber 1.31, Pistol Whip, AmongUs VR), xrdesktop isn't working properly anymore, closing Steam VR crashes Steam.
And I miss playing VR those games. Okay Beat Saber works with the legacy version 1.29 accessible via beta branch, Pistol Whip could be downgraded via console and manifest... still, would be great if this could be fixed.

Will have to check what SteamVR 2.0 brings (if it works for me)
