Input backend kde not supported

[Sciroccogti]

Hi there! I just installed Manjaro with kde, and installed waynergy from AUR, and libxkbcommon, libressl, wlroots as required.

I also set export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/$USER/.config

Here is the log:

$ waynergy  -c 192.168.0.102 --loglevel 5 -b kde

I think maybe I missed something. Should I try uinput?

You may have luck starting it from the desktop menu rather than the terminal itself; if not I'll need to look into whether the scheme to request privileged interfaces has changed

It does work! Thanks so much!

BTW, I think the config example should be shown on the README, so that new users can learn how to write the config.ini easily.
