The recent news that SteamOS may soon be shipped with third-party devices could be particularly important for Linux gaming on desktops.

Even gamers nexus’ Steve today said that they’re about to start doing Linux games performance testing soon. It’s happening, y’all, the year of the Linux desktop is upon us. ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

Edit: just wanted to clarify that Steve from GN didn’t precisely say they’re starting to test soon, he said they will start WHEN the steam OS releases and is adopted. Sorry about that.

    Samsung Odyssey w/ GTX 2060.

    He’s using Monando built with Envision without the steamvr-monado Plugin because “it slows everything down”.

      Whaaat that’s crazy interesting! Thanks for replying!

      I know there’s been a lot of progress made with Monado on these units but the controllers are still no-go from my understanding. Is he using the controllers or just the HMD? :O

      I might just have to spend a weekend figuring out how to build Monado hahaha.
