=== wlx-overlay-s ===
[https://github.com/galister/wlx-overlay-s wlx-overlay-s] is a lightweight OpenXR/OpenVR overlay for Wayland and X11 desktops. It works with SteamVR as well as Monado/WiVRn natively.
==== SteamVR autostart ====
When launching wlx-overlay-s in SteamVR (or any OpenVR compositor) it will register an autostart manifest. Currently, this manifest will reference a Nix store path of wlx-overlay-s, which might get garbage collected after rebuilds of your NixOS/Nix profile. A workaround is to regularly run the following command to update the manifest's store path.{{Commands|
# Run wlx-overlay-s and replace any running instance
$ wlx-overlay-s --replace}}
