- onkoe 5y agoSadly, I'm just a secondary source as someone who uses Linux full-time (and thus can't use Virtual Desktop). I'll ask my friend who did this and get back to you if he has any information.
- raffraffraff 5y agoIt doesn't work on Linux? :( That sucks. Edit: Wait... Immersed is available for Linux. For someone who doesn't know what all the requirements are for a VR desktop environment, can anyone list them? Assume I'm thinking about buying the Oculus 2 and want to use it with Linux + Immersed.
- onkoe 5y agoSteamVR works fine on Linux, but the only wired/lighthouse headset that works well is the Index. Most wired headsets, especially consumer ones, don't bother, so you'll have a hard time with really anything but the Index. As for Quest on Linux, the closest you'll get is with ALVR, which only has experimental builds for Linux. Sadly, it has 2-3x the latency of VD and poor NVIDIA support. I follow their development very closely, though, and it's certainly getting better.
- raffraffraff 5y agoThanks!
- spurgu 5y agoI don't know either, but from the description it doesn't sound too good: > What doesn’t work? > Most apps downloaded through the Oculus Store because of entitlement errors (including Virtual Desktop :/) I would assume Immersed uses this. Disclaimer: Considering getting a Quest 2 just for Immersed.
- jachee 5y agoI’m holding out for their non-Oculus support, which is coming Soon™ according to their FAQ.
- schaefer 5y agoUnfortunately, that’s not what the immersed faq says… it says support for new “XR platforms” coming soon. Those platforms could very well be unreleased future oculus headsets…
- callesgg 5y agoThey might be referring to the xr-3 headset. https://varjo.com/products/xr-3/ https://varjo.com/products/xr-3/
- spurgu 5y agoWow, that's an expensive headset...
- stavros 5y agoWow, "talk to sales"? Who has that kind of money?!
- spurgu 5y agoIf you scroll to the bottom of the page there are some prices as well: "Varjo XR-3 now available for €5495 + XR Subscription" And the subscription seems to be 1.5k/year. :o
- stavros 5y agoWow, damn. I was being facetious, though, if a product has "talk to sales", you know it's expensive :P
