Any word on VR streaming from Linux? I have yet to watch and read most reviews, but I can't seem to find anything about it being exclusive to Windows like the Short Circuit leak claimed

I can almost guarantee you that if valve doesnt get it working, someone will via moonlight, ALVR, and/or WiVRn.

The amount of work that has gone into the Monado/XRizer/Envision/WayVR stack is phenomenal and gaining momentum.

Information seems to be mixed, but it's looking like it at least works in some cases: https://www.reddit.com/r/virtualreality_linux/comments/1welkhs/steam_frame_confirmed_by_linustechtips_to_not/
I think what's in question is whether the wifi dongle is widely supported. It might require some manual configuration at first.

The wifi dongle was demonstrated via the Steam Machine in the "first look" videos.

It'll work in Linux.

Last year’s announcement trailer for Valve‘s new hardware mentioned that Steam Machine would be a great option for streaming games to Steam Frame. So it‘s pretty safe to assume that Linux support for streaming is coming.

WiVRn works in Fedora (over flatpak even!) since March this year, and performs better than SteamVR and possibly even Virtual Desktop - on a Quest 2. WayVR provides desktop portal and playspace dragging. Very recent update makes the interface look good and also provides USB Ethernet support for Android headsets (Quest etc.) if you prefer wired

They recently updated it, which seems to have at least improved stability for me. Still can't get room configuration to run, but I can use default settings fine
