Believe me I would love it.  There is an open source project for it but its really slow moving and barely has anything working.  If you want VR in Linux get an Index.  They work right out of the box.  I can't remember the software off the top of my head but you can get one that allows you to play Oculus store stuff on Index.  All of that works in Linux.  People have gotten it all tweeked and working for the screen to work and if I remember head movements but you can't do controllers or spacial movements.  Makes VR pretty moot without that.  

If I had the money for the Index I would get it.  :(.
