Yes, Valve started working on that about a year ago or so. I think it’s already available in the current Steam Deck software for external monitors. Valve’s involvement has been great for Linux.
Sheesh~ This kind of makes me dream of seeing a future Steam Deck (Or other Valve console) powerful enough to handle most VR games if they’re going to keep on giving the Linux ecosystem a push for whatever features are important to them.
Wait, does that mean we can start looking at HDR displays for regular Linux desktops in a near future?
KDE is working on it for Plasma 6.

well they do have deckard, a standalone linux hmd in the works. also hdr works over gamescope on any distro I believe.
I don’t think deckard is confirmed to be anything yet is it? All just theorising afaik
nothing is ever confirmed until valve releases it but there is some heavy evidence its in development
All I’m saying is when it comes to valve I think the best thing is just to sit right and see, they might not even release it
