Wait, does that mean we can start looking at HDR displays for regular Linux desktops in a near future?

Yes, Valve started working on that about a year ago or so. I think it's already available in the current Steam Deck software for external monitors. Valve's involvement has been great for Linux.

Sheesh~ This kind of makes me dream of seeing a future Steam Deck (Or other Valve console) powerful enough to handle most VR games if they're going to keep on giving the Linux ecosystem a push for whatever features are important to them.
