Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

I'm using Arch Linux with Hyprland on my PC. Recently, I tried streaming SteamVR to my Meta Quest 3 over Wi-Fi 6, but it says that SteamVR is not available on my PC. Additionally, when I try streaming just the desktop, the entire screen appears black.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. install arch.
  2. install hyprland.
  3. install steam && steamvr.
  4. install steamvr beta.
  5. try to use it with meta quest 3 over wifi.
