stdbuf -oL libinput debug-events|grep switch doesnt return anything #21

Closed BoaTheCrafter closed 2 years ago

Hi there, thanks for your project, but i've gotten a weird issue when trying to get it to work on my machine (Lenovo Yoga 530-14ikb) with the current Pop_OS! Version 21.04 and GNOME 3.38.5:

The command you listet for checking the libinput debug-events just doesnt work. I enter it in my Terminal and it doesnt return anything. I tried flipping my screen while the command is running, but even this has the same issue. And since i'm not sure, which event (ls -lh /dev/input/by-path lists like 7 or 8 different inputs with only the keyboard being similiar named to your example config) is needed for my device, i cant get the script to work.

Did you already stumble upon this issue with the aforementioned command?

If it doesn't return anything it just means that your device is not supported. I've updated the README to clarify how to check if your device is supported.
