Dashboard Exit VR doesn't work anymore. No kio popups like in #121 yet but otherwise the same.

confirming here, Debian Buster, rx580, steamvr 1.5.8 beta, on Gnome.

Also occurring here on Solus (Plasma) with an RX 580 and the latest SteamVR beta (3966064).

Can someone with a different graphics card test this?

EDIT: SteamVR system information attached.

Index HMD, Ubuntu 19.04 64 bit, nvidia 2070 super 430.26 (430.34 has issues)

I can't exit from in HMD dashboard. Controller turn off works.

I can reproduce the issue. I don't know that I've ever successfully used the "Exit VR" button.

It did actually used to work, a few months ago.

@Goofybud16 It worked last year on the Vive. It does not work anymore.

I just noticed the launch feedback from KDE one can see after pressing the button in VR.
So the command is definitely sent from the dashboard but ignored by the vrmonitor / doesn't work.
Executing "xdg-open vrmonitor://quit" in a terminal works.

Also in the version 1.9.1 the complete quit does not work over the drop down in vr.

ZZamundaaa 2019-11-14 github

Yeah, the drop down (or up?) menu is a nice change but Quit VR still doesn't work.

This seems to be exactly the same issue as #291 now. As with #291 calling the executable vrmonitor directly with "vrmonitor vrmonitor://quit" (or pressing the button in the dashboard) won't work with "error while loading shared libraries: libsteam_api.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory".
Calling "vrmonitor.sh vrmonitor://quit" works without a problem

ah, so it's a shared library search issue. Thanks for digging into this - maybe we'll get a fix then :) (maybe even another patch on the 1.8 branch? I can dream...)

Works again with 1.10.8 :smile:

Nothing extracted yet.
