Enter key not working when software is running #3

Great little tool!

I have one small issue: As soon as I start the server, my enter key stops working. I can see that in the console, the output is scrolling, as if the enter key is always pressing down.

I should add that when started via systemctl service, this does not happen.

Hello, this looks like some race condition issue where rkvm grabs the keyboard and doesn't register the enter key release event and thus doesn't propagate it further. I think this could be mitigated by adding a short sleep before input devices are grabbed.

I don't have access to my computer right now, could you please check if it works by adding a time::sleep_for(Duration::from_millis(500)).await before the /dev/input directory is traversed and devices grabbed in input/src/event_manager.rs?

Hey, yep, that worked. I could no longer reproduce this.
