BUG: stoped working after upgrading to Plasma 6.1.0 about lan-mouse HOT 7 CLOSED

Ah yeah, I wanted to give an update on this: I originally thought, this would be fixed in plasma 6.1.1 but there turned out to be another issue: Plasma currently does not report barrier ids which I rely on for the libei backend.

You should be able to work around this by compiling with

cargo build --release --no-default-features --features wayland,x11,xdg_desktop_portal,gtk

to disable the libei backend and fallback to layer-shell until it works properly.

Its going to require a workaround or implementation for barrier ids in kwin.

#140

from lan-mouse.

Yeah that is probably a good idea. As well as a --force-backend option

from lan-mouse.

Same with 6.1.1 here.

from lan-mouse.

Suggestion: a command line or config file option for individually enabling/disabling protocols?

(so that it would possible to, e.g., lan-mouse --disable-libei even if it is compiled in?)

BTW, I've updated my OBS package for Tumbleweed to exclude libei.

(I hope there isn't somewhere some Tumbleweed user who was both relying on my home repo project and happens to run Gnome or wherever libei isn't broken 😅 ).

Of course, I'll revert this once:

• either Plasma fixes their libei support
• or some option would allow to disable libei at runtime instead of compile time

Duplicate of #140

You can revert now :)
