A Debian packaged version of this driver can be found in the "NVIDIA Development Drivers" PPA at https://launchpad.net/~mamarley/+archive/ubuntu/nvidia-dev/+packages.

yaourt -S nvidia-vulkan-developer-beta
yaourt -S nvidia-vulkan-developer-beta lib32-nvidia-libgl-vulkan-developer-beta
```

The NVIDIA driver supports direct mode, meaning the HMD will not appear on your desktop, or if it does, the display will have to be turned off in xrandr before being able to use VR.
