Linux doesn't support VR.
steamVR works on it
of course, the only good VR game is Alyx and once you finish that it's only tech demos and chat rooms - nothing else really worth the bother of strapping a monitor to your face.
ALVR isn't awful. I needed new hardware and bit the bullet knowing I was likely going to lose VR, but with the hardware upgrade, it's nicer in the new machine (Bazzite, 7900XT) than the old (Win 10, 2080 Super Max Q). Definitely not a drop in replacement yet though.
