Describe the bug
I have all the latest packages from the ArchLinux repos, among which is the NVIDIA 470 driver.
The motion compensation as far as I know relies on the async reprojection support which was made available in the 470 driver release a while ago. But I can't enable it in my SteamVR.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to SteammVR
  2. Click on 'Video' and then hover over 'Motion smoothing".
  3. See it is disabled and a hint "Motion smoothing is not supported on this GPU / Driver version."

Expected behavior
It should work, not be disabled and being able to be turned on and work.
