| Are you running nixos 25.05 perhaps? | 23:25:08 | |
| That's my state version, yes. | 23:29:22 | |
| I read I'm never supposed to change that in my config.nix. I have updated channels etc | 23:29:41 | |
| This search is from channel 25.11, so if you want to use the newer packages you'll have to upgrade to the 25.11 channel | 23:31:41 | |

| Anyone here use SteamVR? I tried reading the wiki about it but I'm not really having any success. https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/VR Not sure if I should be using Monado in conjunction with SteamVR or if they're separate things and I don't get what I'm supposed to do with this bwrap.patch diff file when I don't even have a bwrap.patch file to begin with. | 12:00:39 | |

| monado and steamvr are separate things | 18:49:46 | |
| I'd give https://lvra.gitlab.io/ a look | 18:49:59 | |
| * monado and steamvr are separate things, I recommend trying monado first and steamvr second | 18:50:45 | |
| * you can use either monado or steamvr, I recommend trying monado first and steamvr second | 18:51:24 | |
| * you can use either monado or steamvr (not both), I recommend trying monado first and steamvr second | 18:51:42 | |
| * also see https://lvra.gitlab.io, it has a lot more information about Linux VR in general | 18:52:10 | |

| i think in 2019, SteamVR was working for me with a Valve Index. After that it did not work anymore. I played for half an hour today using a Meta Quest 3 via Steam Link App (Wifi), but i had video stutters and even the music stuttered sometimes, making it hard to play rythm games. I only played one game (Fruit Ninja 2). When i pause Steam Link, SteamVR and the game on the computer crashes. when i connect to the computer from Steam Link, i'm stuck in the loading world, the SteamVR home is not loading. i have to start the game manually on the computer. i don't want to play like that! I also tested ALVR and WiVRn, but they don't work. so i would say: the status of VR on NixOS is still that it does not work. which is sad, because it did work reliably years ago. for PCVR, a different linux distro or even windows is a better choice | 19:30:28 | |
