  • VR on linux actually works just fine from my experience. I’ve never had a game not work. The big issue is just headset support. The HTC Vive and Valve Index are the only headsets with official drivers, since they were made by Valve. Standalone headsets, like the Quest for example, also work using ALVR. Anything else doesn’t really work. There are open source drivers but they’re not complete enough to be useable unless something majorly changed there since I last checked.



  • Thank you for telling me about Podlet. I’ve been using podman-compose for all my containers but I’ve thought about converting them to systemd units. The only thing I’m unsure about is whether it’ll still be easy to access the container files. Currently I have a containers folder with a folder for each service inside it. Inside that, there’s the compose.yml and the folders with the container data. I map all container folders, with data that needs to be kept, to a folder that sits right next to the compose file. If it’s just temporary data (like caches), I oftentimes map it to a volume because it doesn’t matter if I lose it. Do you know if I can still do it like this (or in a similar way) if I use systemd units?




  • I use podman too and I set up hardware acceleration for Jellyfin. I’ll update this with how I did it once I’m home.

    Edit: Here’s my compose.yml (I use podman-compose):

    services:
      jellyfin:
        image: lscr.io/linuxserver/jellyfin:latest
        container_name: jellyfin
        dns:
          - 9.9.9.9
        environment:
          - PUID=1000
          - PGID=1000
          - TZ=Europe/Berlin
        volumes:
          - ./config:/config:Z
          - ~/drive/media:/media:z
        devices:
          - /dev/dri:/dev/dri
        ports:
          - 8096:8096
          - 7359:7359/udp
          - 1900:1900/udp
