[Linux] [Improvement] Setting to point to Steam VR executable
New to contributing, sorry for any mistakes!
Pretty simple, it would be nice to set the steam vr command in the settings. It would be good for laptops with hybrid graphics (like mine) to be able to set a command prefix to run on the dedicated gpu rather than the integrated. Also if you have multiple different steam installations (native vs flathub) you could specify which one to use.
That's it! Do with this what you will!
That's actually a good idea! Thanks. I'll wait for some comments from Linux contributors.
If i understood it correctly, it's setting commandline parameter in steam, do anyone know how to do it?... i don't think there is api or easy way to change that.
We can just execute a different command conditionally depending on a session setting. This would be handy for me too for work. A bit low priority for me but anyone is welcome to work on it.
Main concern is adding it to steamvr commandline settings but i remembered something, you can use same steam web protocol that you use for launching steamvr, but pass parameters into it It's quite finicky with xdg, needs bunch of quotes around to work properly, but it can work.
