This repository hosts the KernelXR Discussions: the place to ask questions, share test results, and follow project news.
Chat with us on Discord: discord.gg/YwJnEVAcYJ. Quick questions and live talk happen there; answers useful to everyone end up here in Discussions.
KernelXR brings Linux to standalone VR headsets in place of Android. Any Linux distribution can run on the headset with our patches, and we are preparing the patches for the mainline Linux kernel. The first device is PICO 4. The first public builds will be Debian and Arch-based SteamOS.
