I'm planning on getting back into VR, and I definitely prefer having lighthouses (also linux). Is there any HMD that I should be looking at, or is the Index still a good all-rounder?

Yeah, the Index is still you're best bet unless you can afford the Bigscreen Beyond. Also, if you go with an Index, I strongly recommend you buy used or refurbished as new models are still $1000 which is not worth it anymore imo.

Good call on used, thanks. What would be a fair price range for one in perfect condition?

I think GameStop was selling them for around $600 a while back for a full kit. You could probably go cheaper on eBay or something, but there's always a higher risk factor there.

Thanks for the advice, I will probably go this way.
