Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/feschber/lan-mouse/issues/64

From wayfire.org:
"Wayfire is a wayland compositor based on wlroots."

Should I expect lan-mouse to work between wayfire desktops?

4242/UDP open on both desktops.

If there is any info I can send to help with this project let me know. Terminals on both machines look like this, except for the added ip.

It looks like the keyboard-shortcut-inhibit protocol is not supported by wayfire.
This is necessary to enable modifier key events to be handled by lan-mouse.

I can open an issue on the Wayfire repo

Thank you. I just logged back on to add some OS info, but it looks like not needed.

I did some more digging and it seems that shortcut-inhibit was implemented recently. For some reason it's hidden behind a plugin, so you will need to add shortcuts-inhibit to your list of plugins.

I tested it and it seems to be working. Make sure you have a wayfire version that is newer than October 23rd, 2023.

Working may have been an overstatement it still seems to be a little bit buggy. I will do more testing and report that to Wayfire

Now its working! Had to restart wayfire after adding the plugin. Tell me if it works for you, too. I will add a note to the README in the meantime.
