Using VR glasses instead of screens is a wet dream of mine, but VR tech has been one of the worst vendor-locked tech I have ever seen.

I haven't keep up lately, but as a linux-only dev, is there any hw combo which would give me full native hardware support and the ability to develop for the platform?

(I don't count linux-on-[android|win] as a solution)

The xreal glasses mentioned in the article are just displays (or at least they can operate in that way). Their website claim it works with basically anything that outputs HD video (game consoles, PCs and whatnot).
