From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The only company that I know who makes VR tech and is pushing Linux is Valve, but idk if they would consider adding AR in their headsets.
@XLRV @Victim_0
I'd believe they would add it to their headsets, but the main question I have is *when* that headset comes out, Valve time isn't exactly fast
Yeah, Valve could add AR to their headsets, but would AR be something they care about, Valve is a gaming company, VR games are a thing but AR games is even more niche and I don't really know if there's a big enough market to make this interesting.
True, Valve time is something lol, there is rumors about their next VR headset, the deckard which is rumored to be wireless, but in Valve time we are years away from any official information.
