Requirements for PSVR, partial success.

mungewell opened this issue · comments

Found the project and attempted an install with partial success.

Initially driver was unable to connect to PSVR, until I installed the UDEV rules from:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/monado/utilities/xr-hardware/-/blob/master/70-xrhardware.rules

Now I can see the PSVR detail in the log (attached). SteamVR shows the presence of the device in its window, but no VR apps run and shortly after starting them the headset falls back to 'standby'.

I suspect I am missing some important GFX requirement... i am running Xubuntu 18.04.

vrserver.txt

The log at least says that steamvr_room_setup could not create a vulkan instance due to missing vulkan extensions. I believe it could mean that a suitable vulkan driver is not installed.

~/.steam/steam/logs/vrcompositor.txt will give more information about whether the steamvr compositor itself could run properly.
