VR Docker Environment Cannot Detect VR Headset

[helen9975]

Thanks to the authors for open sourcing this! I have a question regarding setting up the vr headset.

When I followed the README for setting up docker, everything worked well. However, it seems that steam (within the container) cannot detect the VR devices that I have plugged into the machine.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Follow https://github.com/chernyadev/bigym/tree/master/vr to set up vr
2. Launch steam

Here's what I see:

Here's what I've tried:

• changing to the beta version
• fixing usb access permissions per Inquiry About VR Setup #18

However, the issue persists.

Any help would be appreciated!

How are you plugging in the headset to the computer? What cables/ports are you using?

Also please, ensure that the headset is properly connected to the host machine. You can verify this by running the lsusb command in the terminal. The headset should appear in the command's output.
