As of today on Linux SteamVR:

  • desktop preview does not work on Wayland DEs
  • dropped frames cause reprojection errors causing visual stutters
  • dropped frames cause "vsync_to_photon" timing errors thus causing input lag/drunken vision
  • exiting any VR game crashes SteamVR Dashboard and sometimes desktop Steam UI too
  • SteamVR sometimes launches legacy UI with missing features
  • SteamVR frequently fails to launch
  • SteamVR does a partial "silent launch" - no desktop confirmation of VR running, but you see image inside of a headset
  • SteamVR can't automatically switch audio device to headset speakers, nor supports audio mirroring

Issues which don't apply to Steam Frame but are still technically issues on legacy "Linux supported" headsets:

  • Base Station power management does not work (Vive 1.0/Index 2.0)
  • Room preview/cameras do not work
  • Volume buttons do not work (HTC Vive Pro)

And probably many more issues I'm missing
