I use ALVR on occasion for a quest 2: Tentacular, Jet Island, Gorn, Neos VR, SairentoVR run great after some tweaking. Have your rig plugged into a decent 5ghz router, I settled on 80hz refresh rate and bumped my packet size up to 8000B. <3
Understandable. But i like privacy and the whole thought behind FOSS. I am a Software developers myself and like to dig into code and See for myself how it works and play with it.
Since the release of Oculus Dev Kit 1 (de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oculus_Rift) 10 years passed. So i thought that could be a long enough time for an OpenSource-Community to drop a Kind-of-alternative to properitary Oculus Software.
There are some attempts at OpenHMD and Monado. Unfortunately Oculus headsets like Rift S have their tracking handled by software, so the community have to write code for room tracking as well as controller tracking. As opposed to Quest and I think Vive/Index, where tracking is handled by hardware itself.
Unfortunately it’s pretty normal for gaming laptops to get very hot. Check your internal temperatures though, if your CPU is over 90C on heavy load you may have to reapply thermal paste. Also clean the vents and fans when you get a chance.
The outside heat of the laptop doesn’t matter much, just make sure the CPU doesn’t hit 98C or so.
From what I got yesterday it balanced around 70. But think I have to realise that it’s about time a I got a new laptop, something with Linux at its core.
