Did you start room setup from the VR status monitor or directly from the command line? It needs to be run in the Steam Runtime.
@johnv-valve I tried both the SteamVR window and from command line.
After trying to launch a few more times, I got an assert error:

Fixed by reinstalling the NVIDIA Developer drivers.
have you reinstalled them using the PPA repository ?
@koreldan I used the run file, but the PPA is better if you're on Ubuntu.
@thesbros which NVIDIA Developer drivers did you re-install?
@Conzar The latest version of the Vulkan Developer Beta. It's linked in the README.
Thanks, I didn't realise there was a PPA. I can't seem to install the PPA drivers ...
sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-375
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Reinstallation of nvidia-375 is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
I added the ppa and removed a previous ppa for nvidia graphics.
Not sure. Try removing all driver ppas and then re-add this one. Also try installing nvidia-graphics-drivers-375 if it still doesn't work after that.
I think I still need the graphics-driver ppa for the vulkin utils right?
I'm not sure. The readme says if you're also using the graphics-drivers ppa, to pin the dev ppa higher - which leads me to believe it's not required.
I figured it out. I will leave the solution here for anyone else that might need it.
Edit /etc/apt/preferences.d/nvidia-375-pin-400
Package: libcuda1-375
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mamarley-nvidia-dev
Pin-Priority: 1000
Package: nvidia-375
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mamarley-nvidia-dev
Pin-Priority: 1000
Package: nvidia-375-dev
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mamarley-nvidia-dev
Pin-Priority: 1000
Package: nvidia-libopencl1-375
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mamarley-nvidia-dev
Pin-Priority: 1000
Package: nvidia-opencl-icd-375
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mamarley-nvidia-dev
Pin-Priority: 1000
Than issue the following commands
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-375 nvidia-375-dev
So my solution above works for the setup but the tutorial crashes with the same error. Anyone else having this issue?
Try quitting Steam and then running it through command line with:
STEAM_RUNTIME_PREFER_HOST_LIBRARIES=0 steam
@thesbros steamvr doesn't recognise my hmd if I do that.
Nothing extracted yet.
Running Room Setup shows the window for a second, then closes.
