|
|
A: Set the environment variables `WLR_BACKENDS=headless` and
|
|
|
|
`WLR_LIBINPUT_NO_DEVICES=1` before starting sway, then run wayvnc as normal.

**Q: How can I pass my mod-key from Sway to the remote desktop session?**
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A: Create an almost empty mode in your sway config. Example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
mode passthrough {
|
|
|
|
bindsym $mod+Pause mode default
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
bindsym $mod+Pause mode passthrough
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This makes it so that when you press $mod+Pause, all keybindings, except the one
|
|
|
|
to switch back, are disabled.

**Q: Not all symbols show up when I'm typing. What can I do to fix this?**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A: Try setting the keyboard layout in wayvnc to the one that most closely
|
|
|
|
matches the keyboard layout that you're using on the client side. An exact
|
|
|
|
layout isn't needed, just one that has all the symbols that you use.
