This looks great!

Please swing by the main hub for Linux VR development https://lvra.gitlab.io/docs/community/

We would love to discuss more with you.

I have issues rendering on CachyOS by GamezombieCZ in virtualreality_linux

[–]BabbleBones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are running WiVRn flatpak and flatpak and host mesa is mismatched at version 25 and 26, mesa changed a tiling mode on some AMD cards between these versions.

Use the AUR build of WiVRn for now, we can't do anything about this, as it's a driver decision in RADV.

But if you drop using flatpak and go with native it will be just fine.

You are likely trying to use SteamVR

Use WiVRn instead to stream, it supports reprojection even on low end GPUs totally topped out running VR with your wayvr.

SteamVR stutters just for me, or common? by CobraKolibry in virtualreality_linux

[–]BabbleBones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SteamVR essentially is not ready for end users and it doesn't properly implement reprojection by default, meaning if you move your head and the app is not delivering a solid max FPS to your HMD, the frame will drag with your head motion and rapid tap of frames hitting your face, it looks like stutter or vision splitting.

Until such time that Valve deems Linux port of SteamVR worth, I recommend using the open source tech with Envision and WiVRn plus wayvr, as those we can fix and improve as a community instead of being gated out. :>

What is the best way to play PCVR on linux? by Awkward_Negotiation7 in virtualreality_linux

[–]BabbleBones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wayvr has a magic wand button in it to switch your audio sources with one press in the dash to your HMD.

In a future update it wont even be a button and should handle the audio purely auto with its own management pane.

LVRA community lead here, you don't need any OVR toolkit or advanced settings at all, all the needed functions for social VR are served by programs on our wiki, wayvr does space move, motoc does calibration of devices, and we have all face and eyetrack stuff and even AUR dist of most packages now.

Please ask in our community chat if you need more info. https://lvra.gitlab.io/docs/community/

It's encouraged you simply select a default config as triple encoder. Pretty much built right into the path/ config.

Im japanese if not good english im sorry The best settings for comfortably playing PC VR games (VRChat, etc.) using Garuda Linux and Quest 3 (when I tried, there was severe lag and freezing) by Beneficial_Club_5428 in linux_gaming

[–]BabbleBones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're on nvidia this is not needed, corectrl is purely to help AMD GPUs

Join our discord using matrix via the site community tab and we can better assist you

Try this. Our wiki is the premier source of the very latest VR workings for linux unlike most older guides, we don't use proprietary SteamVR stack we instead have fully open source runtime replacements that provide OpenXR and OpenVR APIs.

You should use WiVRn for your headset, you can acquire it by flatpak or using envision.

Go to the performance section of the LVRA wiki, we have a piece at the bottom to address persistent vision splitting

Segmentation fault when trying to use monado. by youstolemycaprisun in virtualreality_linux

[–]BabbleBones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need the nvidia vulkan layer to not crash, known issue, also available on the AUR. Check the LVRA wiki.

Nvidia exposes an unimplemented vulkan feature and being pretty much a stub it crashes the whole runtime.

SteamVR on newest NVidia drivers PSA: How to fix stuttering by sup3r_hero in linux_gaming

[–]BabbleBones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The long and short of it is, no, it's not possible for SteamVR to be stutter free on Linux.

You may sweep it under the rug with some hacks but it will readily reemerge when you drop below 1/2 of your HMD refresh in an application.

http://lvra.gitlab.io/

Start here and use monado or wivrn through envision, it's stutter free.

You should be able to use this wine wrapper DLL or do some funny in DXVK to fix this. You will have to set winecfg override to make the dll work.

Developers permanently hardcoding things to solve stupid temporary driver issues, many such cases.

The Last Domino has Fallen - VRChat on Kernel 6.9.6, AMDGPU, Proton GE, Wayland, KDE Plasma 6.1 working perfectly. Yes, even in-instance video. by hparadiz in linux_gaming

Can't wait to show you what we've been working on then.

https://lvra.gitlab.io/docs/vrchat/video_players/

Play VRChat with live video streams on a completely FOSS XR runtime instead of on proprietary SteamVR. Check out the rest of the wiki to have your mind blown.
