Here's something that could be exciting but also could be a whole lot of nothing. So keep expectations firmly in check, but work submitted for Linux kernel 6.6 show something interesting from Valve. Potentially a Steam Deck refresh or their new VR headset perhaps?
It feels too early for a new Steam Deck, I would think that would take another 2 or 3 years. I would love something like a standalone VR though, but VR on linux is not in the best shape yet so I’m not sure how that would go.
