    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
