Yeah I have an Oculus Rift S and the hardware support is pretty bad and I haven't really gotten it to work. Obviously a vendor issue, and i don't see meta open sourcing or releasing any drivers for linux anytime soon.

Yeah, I have a Valve Index, which is officialy supported on Linux, so I don't have any issues in that regard. I think the only headsets that work well on Linux are the two with official support (HTC Vive and Valve Index) and the Quest headsets because of ALVR.

Considering they specifically removed Linux support of the earlier headsets, I doubt it too.
