Ignition (VR)

Currently, Ignition is packaged for Linux to run Windows OpenVR drivers. The Ignition package (named Ignition-Linux-Windows) can be extracted to a folder like /opt/ignition, or somewhere that is at least accessible to applications running under the Steam Linux Runtime. install_ignition.sh <driver path> will create a new <driver path>/bin/linux64 directory for SteamVR to load the Windows driver through Ignition. Ignition is configured by ignition.json, with the install script automatically filling out the config to run the Windows SteamVR driver under Proton. You must at least install Proton from Steam, preferably Proton Experimental. You can use driver_install.sh in the linux64 folder to install the driver for SteamVR to load.

You may also use Ignition on Windows to run Windows drivers on top of it, which is helpful for validating driver behavior due to Ignition. Currently, there is no packaging for Windows, so you must build and set it up yourself. Supported Drivers

Ignition supports these drivers:

Oasis Driver The preview branch has Ignition already included along with changes in the driver to work under Wine properly. See the update post here. PlayStation VR2 (using PSVR2Toolkit) The experimental release of PSVR2Toolkit is required to make the PSVR2 driver work under Wine.

Most drivers that don't work under Wine/Proton usually have these problems: - Required USB support (no provided by Wine currently) - Missing dependencies in Windows libraries that need to be implemented in Wine - Specific OpenVR interfaces or versions (Ignition does not implement all versions of interfaces)

More drivers will be supported over time as patches for each driver are made.
