Hey guys, I’m running into a bit of a problem and could use some help. I recently dug out my Vive for some VR gaming, but I’ve hit a roadblock.
Whenever I fire up Steam VR, I keep getting a “SteamVR unable to get DRM lease” error, even on X11. I gave the beta version a shot, and it worked for a day, but now the problem’s back, and I’m fresh out of ideas.
I also asked around in the Nobara Discord, they had the idea of using some arguments __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia
or even dri_prime=1
but nothing.
Here’s my setup, I know it’s a bit unconventional:
- OS: Nobara Linux 38 (KDE Plasma) x86_64
- Laptop: XPS 15 9530
- Desktop Environment: Plasma 5.27.9
- Window Manager: kwin
- CPU: 13th Gen Intel i9-13900H (20) @ 5.200GHz
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Max-Q / Mobile (4.6.0 NVIDIA 535.113.01)
- GPU: Intel Raptor Lake-P [Iris Xe Graphics]
- Memory: 32GB
- Steam Version: 1700160213
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT: One side effect is also that I always have a black XOrg window that I can’t close, I can’t find the PID for that program.
Well sadly that didn’t work, same error then before.
