Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/feschber/lan-mouse/issues/244

2024-12-16 Upon unpacking the entire .zip of v0.10.0 and executing lan-mouse.exe, it creates but does not populate a window, and a console window seems to be listing hundreds of lines of C code (I can see line numbers and a lot of #defines) instead of doing anything relating to the LAN or a mouse..

EDIT: Attached proof

The code you're seeing seems to be glsl shader code. My guess is that this is part of a gtk error message related to shader compilation but its hard to tell without seeing the entire output. Could you paste it into a file and upload here?

Thank you for the feedback, I will look into this when I have time.
You could also try to build GTK from source as described in the README and see if that fixes the issue.

Using lan-mouse.exe -f cli got it to work for me going from sway to windows. From the CLI on windows I did
connect right <sway machine IP> then
activate 0
and it seems to work.

Yeah the issue is specifically with the gtk frontend

I'm going to close this, as its an issue with gtk / broken installation and not lan-mouse itself.
