I stopped using my desktop a few weeks back, and when I came back, I couldn't move my laptop's mouse to desktop. I think might be because of this:

Jun 29 19:46:51 silve lan-mouse[4466]: [2025-06-30T00:46:51Z INFO  lan_mouse::connect] client (0) connecting ... (ips: [])
Jun 29 19:47:01 silve lan-mouse[4466]: [2025-06-30T00:47:01Z WARN  lan_mouse::capture] releasing capture: not connected

From the PC, keyboard and mouse works in laptop

Oh wait I figured it out had to add this ips to my config wasn't there before:
"*******" = "Desktop-Silve"
clients
position = "top"
hostname = "Desktop-Silve"
ips = ["192.168.8.124"]
activate_on_startup = true
turns out Desktop-Silve isn't the hostname for desktop anymore for some reason. Must of changed something with my router
