Describe the bug
SteamVR Home wont start. Might be closed issue #579 resurfacing, similar tcmalloc error

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to SteamVR
  2. Click on Launch
  3. Wait
  4. SteamVR never goes into Home, games can be played through VR Dashboard, though some seem to crash more often since Home stopped working.

Expected behavior
Home to work.

Anyone else wondering if the devs are on an extended vacation or something, or if they even check here anymore?

Update to 2.8.5 still not working. Really frustrating. Been like 3 months since Home has worked. Would be awesome to see some kind of fix for this. Also, VR Dashboard has reverted to pre 2.0 sometime over the last week.

Still no Home. 4 months now. Thanks for ignoring!

Beta 2.9.1, still no SteamVR Home, but kudos to the devs for finally getting the desktop window controls (dock to controllers, float in world, open in theater) into SteamVR for Linux.

AFAIK the Home worked once but crashed after a while or something so maybe that's why they disabled it?

Nothing extracted yet.
