Still does that on my machine... I can hear some high hissing sounds when moving the cursor on my ThinkPad (running Manjaro)

i hear that too when ive got vr running on linux, isnt that coil whine? or are you referring to something else?

[–] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

A relatively easy way I've found to get coil whine is to go on shadertoy.com and use the shadertoy extension to increase the paint calls

It only seems to work with some shaders for me though, https://www.shadertoy.com/view/WtfyDj seems to work well

Oooh, what headset are you using? Also, unfortunately I don't know about coil whining, sorry.

[–] euphoric_cat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'm using a vive pro with the index controllers. coil whine is hard to explain, but its exactly that. it comes from the gpu, maybe you can fond some videos on youtube

Are you using steam VR? If so, what version? I'm currently having some issues with getting games to actually display in the headset and the dashboard not coming up... And since you seem to have it up and running, I'd like to know!

The dashboard is an issue with steamvr on linux in general. I'm using the latest beta, other then that not sure what the problem is. you need to have a vive or index I guess too. Messaging on lemmy is kinda a pain in general too, do you have matrix?

I do have matrix! It's here @smorty:catgirl.cloud
