Hi @lnussel could you describe bug you are fixing with this patch? Is there any related issue, or is it something what happened with your installation? |
|
/dev/uinput is a static device node, as such the existing udev rule doesn't work. Not sure it ever worked. Looks like on X11 there is a fallback to Xtest but that doesn't work on Wayland, so uinput ACLs are needed. |
|
Could you send any link to docs mentioning this? |
|
no but google uinput uaccess leads to eg this ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux#4794 |
