DCS laser pointer does not work
Instruction in options says you can point at buttons and press buttons with that hands but actually nothing works except recenter button and I guess thats it...

So how to enable that laserpointer and actually press buttons on cocpit?

Vive Pro 2 user here.

What do you mean by that.
I am in front of my cockpit in headset and I even see my controllers / hands.

Except I can't see any laser pointers and I can't even see any fingers moving when I press controller buttons. Is there a point ngame when it become awailable or It should work from the first mission?

Or is need to set somehow manually to work with controlers.

I guess that you are in VR, because if you are not in VR, there is no laser pointer.

Can you see your VR hands? There is new command to enable/disable them.

In the input commads are:
VR left hand (enable/disable)
VR right hand (enable/disable)
Is that what you are looking for?

Edit: it is in UI layer category.

In DCS options in VR tab you choose the Pointer option. You can choose between:
No pointer
Use on both hands
Use on left hand
Use on right hand

Default is "no pointer"

Suddenly found a very thin pointer coming out the side the gloves. I quit playing for a while and when i came back to DCS the thin pointer now comes out the finger tip of the glove. This happened after one of their massive updates-downloads. Everything works for now. They seem to have the mind set if something works lets screw with it till it does`nt .
