Microsoft deprecated their VR framework (WMD), and therefore many VR headsets compatible with this standard are now effectively broken.
Luckily, the open source community has started reverse engineering the hardware and is now able to support most of these headsets through a project called Monado. Monado runs exclusively on linux at the moment.
Does anyone here have some experience with Monado? Is it worth getting a cheap VR headset and give it a try? I heard that it is still not very stable, but there isn’t much information available.
You can take a look at the Linux VR Adventures Wiki, it’s the best resource available right now for VR on Linux (full disclosure: I’m biased since I’m part of the lvra community/devs 🤓)
