Are you doing pcvr with a Linux machine? I'm interested to know what kernel you're on, if so. I ordered one and am on 7.1 but am seeing reports that the dongle doesn't work appropriately unless you're on 7.2 - I'm also concerned that newer Nvidia drivers aren't stable for Deadlock (steam game) so am apprehensive to unpin those drivers for update at this point.
Outside of that, has the experience been relatively plug and play or did you find yourself adjusting a ton of settings before you were up and gaming?
I'm afraid my VR is currently via Windows, so I can't currently answer your first question.
It has been entirely play, though, as I didn't even bother plugging the wireless adapter in yet (had been curious about streaming via my network to another, less cramped room and it works really well!)
I had a look through the various settings to try and see if there was anything I wanted to tweak immediately, but didn't adjust anything yet and have been having a good experience.
