it's as simple as the title
after installing the flatpak, i manually added the openvr driver, nothing steamvr-related worked
am currently trying to get the appimage to work, but it can't even seem to find the portable java i've been giving it to eat, i'll probably make a seperate issue for that

is the flatpak even supposed to support openvr? i haven't actually seen that mentioned either way anywhere

don't worry about the fact i'm on a sega nomad, i'm pretty sure that's unrelated
