Can't control from Hyprland Server a Windows Client / Client can control Server

[beyertom]

Hi all,

i have the following issues with a Hyprland (git rev: b7f42a1e88a5b6c9d2dbdba31e0f35f6a02461e7) lan-mouse Server (most recent git) and Windows Client (Development Build from 2024-06-27).

The Hyprland Client can't control the Windows Client, i cant move the mouse "over" the magic edge.

The other way round it works. The client Mouse can control the server.

(Maybe coincidental) everything worked with an older Version of Hyprland (>= v0.40).

My config:

Server config.toml

backend = "wlroots"
frontend = "cli"
port = 4242

[left]
activate_on_startup = true
host_name = "n046524"
ips = ["10.0.3.8", "10.0.3.17"]

Client config.toml

port = 4242
frontend = "cli"

[right]
hostname = "erde"
activate_on_startup = true
ips = ["10.0.3.1", "10.0.9.1"]

[left]
hostname = "n046524"
activate_on_startup = true
ips = ["10.0.3.17"]
port = 4242

Server debug output:

Thanks for your support!

Could you check, if

lan-mouse --test-capture

works on Hyprland?

Hyprland has broken a lot of things removing wlroots code so maybe this is a bug introduces because of that

[beyertom]

sorry, stupid question, how do i get out of the test-capture mode again?

edit: strange behavior: when i move in hyprland the mouse to the complete right edge (i have two monitors on the hyprland computer, so on the right monitor the right edge), i cant move the mouse back. Also CTRL+C is not working anymore. I need to switch TTY (ALT+CTRL+F1) and when i switch back the terminal is closed.

edit 2: why right edge? i configured in hyprland server that the Windows Computer is "left of hyprland".

[feschber]

ESC releases the mouse (this of course only works if capture works) and then you can CTRL+C in the terminal.

If your mouse is stuck, TTY switching / ssh is probably the best bet.
(should have maybe warned you, sorry about that)

2: --test-capture should configure a client on all four sides and report which side the events are coming from

[feschber]

I will checkout latest hyprland myself real quick

[feschber]

Ah wait, I've seen this before, this is a duplicate of #135 (the original issue was fixed)

[feschber]

You can use this patch:
hyprwm/Hyprland#6170 (comment)

[beyertom]

awesome, thanks so much for the quick support!

[beyertom]

You can use this patch: hyprwm/Hyprland#6170 (comment)

works like a charm :-) thanks again

[feschber]

No problem! Glad I could help
