Unable to start server: Input error: Device or resource busy (os error 16) #36

Hey, Barrier Refugee on wayland here. I wanna run the server on my desktop PC (device A) and connect my Laptop as client (device B).

I've used the AUR installation and installed the rkvm package. Running Manjaro Linux on both devices.

After creating certificate and Key and running sudo cp /etc/rkvm/server.example.toml /etc/rkvm/server.toml,

i can run the server start command by typing sudo rkvm-server /etc/rkvm/server.toml. After a few seconds the server stops, because of an Input Error. See the log:

sudo rkvm-server /etc/rkvm/server.toml

For testing purposes i tried running the server on the Laptop and using the Desktop PC as Client. This works well. The Desktop PC is running wayland, the Laptop is still on X11.

I am thankful for any assistance and help!

EDIT: Same outcome, if i use X11 on the Server/Desktop PC.

Thanks for reporting this, I'll take a look.

Looks like this got fixed in 0.5.0. Can you please confirm this is the case by running the latest rkvm?

@htrefil I am now using rkvm-0.6.0-1 from the Arch AUR. I've tested with X11 on both PCs and now with Wayland on the serverside and X11 on Client. This really works wonderfully nice now. Only thing i am missing now is a shared Clipboard, but that's not part of this issue. Thanks for your Update! Now i am ready to use Wayland! :partying_face: I'll close this Issue now.
