So, I got an Oculus Rift DK2 cheap off CL. Tried for a solid day trying to get it running on the Hydra Game console, but no go due to the Quadro GPU. The six headed Hydra here uses HD6450's, and it lit right up. Just another peripheral, but 5 Oculus Rifts connected to 5 VM's seems to suggest some very cool 5 way gaming setups. Already have the Leap Motion working (in Ubuntu, with Compiz extensions you can spin the globe with your hand) and will be checking out some Leap + Rift games/content. Any suggestions?
