Are you using the latest version of lan-mouse?

Ok the officials arch repos installed lan-mouse 0.8 something... (even if I updated the whole system 10 min prior to installing the program). Now that problem doesn't persist anymore but I can't manage to make it work anyway.

Maybe this gives more insight on the issue

Yes, It was just updated today. You can use 0.9.1 from lan-mouse-bin / lan-mouse-git on the AUR until it lands in the official repos.

As for "client not responding, releasing pointer": Make sure to configure both sides i.e. add + activate Device A on device B and vice versa.

This behaviour is confusing and I'm planning to change it (#164)

  1. no thats just a warning (and maybe it should not be a warning)

Thank you now I'm going to it.

Actually, it seems like 0.9.1 already landed in the repos. This should include the fix for plasma 6.1

Thank you now I'm going to it.

I'm not quite sure what you mean? So it still does not work?
Just to be sure: Could you run killall lan-mouse and run it again on both devices to make sure the new version is actually running?

Yeah sorry it's late so my brain read something completely different.

I've performed the command but still:

No everything is working fine on this end.
Could you show a log from the other device?

Yes give me a couple of minutes for logging with github into the other pc

hold on: I think there is something wrong with your dns.
DNS says thinkpad has ip 192.168.1.115 but the events are coming from 192.168.1.127

YES I've noticed right now, turns out that my thinkpad was using my wireless connection

You could manually configure the ips with a config like this:

[left]
hostname = "thinkpad"
ips = ["192.168.1.127", "192.168.1.115"]

Do I have to make a folder in .config/ ?

@feschber

Owner

yeah

mkdir ~/.config/lan-mouse/
