Not trying to clickbait but is this the end for kernel-level anti-cheat?

VR games work just fine in proton, as long as you're on Vive or Index.
It's the the headsets that don't support linux, unfortunately.
I've never got my Vive to work well in Linux, even though I'm using X which supposedly still is better for gaming that Wayland.
There are a lot of kinks around VR on linux. Wayland has been better in my experience, but I still can't believe SteamVR on linux just doesn't have power management for the base stations implemented. Like, it works, there's a fucking python script that can do it! But not via SteamVR.
I use an app on my phone to turn my base stations on and off.
Here's hoping the Deck and whatever Deckard turns out to be means Valve is in the process of improving the situation.
For the Index and 2.0 Basestation it's supposed to work for a while now https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamVR-for-Linux/issues/320#issuecomment-1835581128
