Unable to Start or Change keybind on Fedora 36 KDE

BananaViking commented 2 years ago

OS / ENVIRONMENT:

Operating system: Fedora 36 KDE
De or Wm: KDE
XClicker version: 1.4.0

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1.Download Appimage 2.make into an executable then double click to execute 3.Attempt to start the auto clicking with default hotkey, Nothing happens. 4.Attempt to change the default hotkey, turns out i am unable to rebind it to any key at all ( i tried pretty much every key)

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR:

On hotkey press start the auto clicker, and on start to change keybind it should register the key im pressing to turn it into the new hotkey

ACTUAL BEHAVIOUR:

When pressing the default hotkey (f8) the auto clicker doesnt do anything, and when i try to change the default hotkey it doesnt register any of the keys i press to change it into.

Additional information (optional):

I see this when i attempt to follow this guide https://github.com/robiot/xclicker/wiki/Installation#other-distros

edit: im very new to linux so go easy on me plz

Are you on wayland or xorg? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/202891/how-to-know-whether-wayland-or-x11-is-being-used

Wayland according to the commands that i followed in the link

XClicker is for x11, as it name states Xclicker. If you wan't it to work, you'll need to run xorg/x11. To run kde with x11 you'll need to:

Log out. so you go to your login screen
Press the desktop session button and change it from Desktop Session: Plasma (Wayland) to Desktop Session: Plasma (x11)

Thanks so much for your help and and i apologize for making such a mistake. I really appreciate your time and help

one small thing that can be ignored, when i rename the file it wont launch, its probably another thing that im missing. <3
