I did the exact same. I've made the switch from windows 11. I'm done with Microsoft and their bloated BS. There's only a couple of things that force me to go back, head tracking is one of them. Please can you supply the software for us Linux users.

YES! PLEASE! I need Linux Support. I purchased my TrackIR 5 less than 6 months ago, this is my second TrackIR after my 4 died after years of use. I don't want this to be the last one I have.

You have 73 separate posts from users over a period of 15 years. With the mass exodus of Windows that will be coming in October of this year, now that serious power users (and lets face it, your customer base are the niche power users as casual gamers aren't going to invest $150 in a VERY niche product) will be leaving windows BECAUSE of the Steam support FOR Linux with the Proton adaptability layer. SO, IF you want to keep your product relevant and usable, I'd like to humbly request that you consider putting in the time and effort to develop a driver and software support for the Linux environment.

Hi everyone,

While we do not have a current date for its release, I have heard from our developers that Linux will be included in our future development plans.

Kind Regards,

I'm thrilled to find this, but it's been over a year. Any update on a possible release date?

Hello Lupus,

Thanks for the feedback and follow up. We have internal resources looking into updates for TrackIR. However, we can't currently comment on the timing or scope of those updates at this time. Linux support has been a frequent request, so while it's a complex ask, we are designing things such that this could be achievable in the future.

Kind Regards,
