I don’t mean to sound like an a-hole, but when will the KDEConnect’s ever-appearing “accept” pop-up when remote-mousing work properly?

EDIT (MONTHS LATER): IT WORKS PERFECTLY NOW ❤️

There’s still a bunch of little bugs in KDE6, they’ll get ironed out over time. For the KDE connect bug I use a ydotool command to emulate an enter key press to accept the remote command access from my bed.

That’s a great workaround, could you share the command?

The command itself isn’t complex:

YDOTOOL_SOCKET="$HOME/.ydotool_socket" ydotool key 28:1 28:0

The hard part is getting ydotool to run on boot for your user (no sudo). I had to create a bash script to run on login with the following line:

ydotoold --socket-path="$HOME/.ydotool_socket" --socket-own="$(id -u):$(id -g)"

It’s a bit hacky but it works.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
